I have the same problem : the process memory usage grow until it takes all the available memory. I disabled bluetooth in the Unity menu and the process still runs and after some hours uses enough memory to prevent me from working with the computer if i do not kill it before. I don't know if it is linked but when opening "bluetooth parameters" and switching bluetooth disabled it does not stay disabled! My configuration : Ubuntu 15.04 on a toshiba z10t with 4GB RAM.

Then it causes overheating and crashes the system requiring a reboot only possible forcefully by on/off switch of the computer. When I kill the process from system monitor to avoid this happening, it starts from zero again (automatically) and restart the gradual increase of memory use. Obviously there's a loop, but I couldn't figure out or find the reason or how to solve this. I can not remove indicator-bluetooth permanently due to package dependencies. This started happening after I upgraded from 14.10 to 15.04. My computer is Toshiba Portege Z930 with 8 GB memory (which becomes used up in app. 30 minutes), Intel® Core™ i7-3687U CPU and Intel® Ivybridge Mobile graphics card.
