Bug#807062: Excessive memory usage with large contacts database

[Josh Triplett]

Package: gnome-contacts
Version: 3.18.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #807062

This bug has become rather critical for me; this makes my machine
unusable several times per day:

~$ dmesg | grep 'Killed process'
[16724.318901] Killed process 4602 (gnome-contacts-) total-vm:7307284kB, anon-rss:6114904kB, file-rss:0kB
[25627.453839] Killed process 6732 (gnome-contacts-) total-vm:7340948kB, anon-rss:6143656kB, file-rss:0kB
