I've heard from two list members who see similar behavior.

I have had support case 29701072 open for 42 days. I have been told twice that 
the issue would be escalated to a level-2 tech who might be able to understand 
that a save process exceeding 3.5 gigabytes of memory could indicate a 
client-side problem, but haven't heard from one. I've been asked for the server 
daemon.log again.

Making a weekly tarball is a barely acceptable workaround for now.
