Memory usage is already less than that of system-config-packages when
dealing with a significantly larger body of packages.  Which isn't to
say it can't get better, but things are moving in the right direction.

As for the backtrace, can you please ensure that it's fine in test3
(works on my laptop and all of my test systems) and if not, please file
in bugzilla!

Thanks,
