Calibre memory usage - Linux

$

I'm currently in the process of editing metadata in my newly created Calibre Library (approximately 1500 books) and I noticed the memory utilisation seemed to be increasing gradually.

Upon loading Calibre the initial memory used is:
Code:

22504 python2 /usr/bin/calibre-parallel --pipe-worker from calibre.utils.ipc.pool import run_main, worker_main; run_main(worker_main)
681200 python2 /usr/bin/calibre --detach

After 20 minutes or so:
Code:

22504 python2 /usr/bin/calibre-parallel --pipe-worker from calibre.utils.ipc.pool import run_main, worker_main; run_main(worker_main)
70620 python2 /usr/bin/calibre-parallel
71468 python2 /usr/bin/calibre-parallel
827796 python2 /usr/bin/calibre --detach

After approximately 40 minutes:
Code:

22504 python2 /usr/bin/calibre-parallel --pipe-worker from calibre.utils.ipc.pool import run_main, worker_main; run_main(worker_main)
1056120 python2 /usr/bin/calibre --detach

The memory keeps increasing slowly beyond this.

So far I have used the copy of Calibre in the repos (Arch based Manjaro) and the binary install from the Calibre web site. I was thinking about building from git but I thought I'd check here first.

Is this a memory leak?
