Serious memory leak in Linux Mint 18
The memory issue is caused by libcurl... Opened a bug to libcurl project. Maybe I am wrong but looks like it...

Serious memory leak in Linux Mint 18
At the end this looks like a gnutls bug. They use way too much memory and they dont free it up once the transfer is done. It is not a libcurl bug.
For now the solution is to use libcurl4-openssl-dev package instead of the libcurl4-gnutls-dev one.
