Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-notifier-kde

update-notifier-kde takes 17000k of physical memory acording to ksysguard (or 35mb of resident memory). About the same as processes like kate, skype, yakuake... I don't mind eclipse taking 300mb of ram because I'm actually using it, while update-notifier just sits there doing nothing all day long.
The same is true for other services like printing and kblueplugd

Solution:
Don't use interpreted languages on system services or daemons. The tray thing should be written in c++ and then call the actual update program in python.
