All desktop and status applets run within hildon-desktop. Misbehaving applets will crash the desktop causing it to reset. Applets with memory leaks will likely cause what you're seeing.

Disable all the applets you've added, then add them back one at a time, running your walk-away-for-awhile-and-check-memory-use-when-you-come-back test for each. Hopefully, you'll be able to identify which applet is eating memory.
