OK, so the problem is at the notmuch level. I don't really have any good
ideas on how to debug your issues. There are known (apparently unfixable)
memory management issues with the old python bindings, it is possible
that your issues are related to that. You should probably consider
migrating any python scripts to the new bindings (the module is called
notmuch2). We have deprecated the "notmuch" module, and will drop it
completely at some point.
