by the way, it's not the disk space that is taken up that's the big issue for me, it's the memory that these caching processes eat up even when I don't use kmail or any other software that they support. On my laptop with 'only' 2G of ram, these processes eat up a very noticeable amount of it (close to 1/4 of the available ram)

If "these caching(sic) processes" is referring to Akonadi services, then you are most likely unknowingly running "or any other software that they support."
Akonadi is neither autostarted nor restored by a session manager (unless one manually adds autostart support files, which is highly unlikely in your case), but started on-demand by first client.
I think there is a list of less known clients on userbase.kde.org which are known to cause Akonadi startup for users who are strictly against PIM data integration features.

Ok, the only windows I have open are firefox chromium, and xterms. nepomuk is disabled through system settings (kubuntu 11.10)
what did I do to demand that 26 processes with a fairly significant memory footprint start up?
