These numbers include the "shared memory" which are shared between a
*lot* of other applications.

know it.  The other process have other functionality related to
Evolution, GNOME, and Nautilus (and probably others).

So, don't worry, that's normal (even with other applications.  Though,
Evolution *is* larger than most other Linux applications I know of).
