Same here:

canek@negra ~ $ uptime
 11:01:52 up 5 days, 20:13,  1 user,  load average: 0.06, 0.43, 0.50

(It's a laptop that I usually suspend at night).

Kinda similar here: GNOME 3.0, Emacs with several LaTeX articles,
Evince, Evolution, Rhythmbox, Chromium with like 20 tabs (my 4 zombie
processes are Chromium tabs), and the heaviest of all, Inkscape with 6
different SVG pictures.

There is something really wrong with Alex D-Bus; but I don't think
it's the bus. Probably some program is spamming the bus, making it use
that much memory, but I don't know for sure.
