Update : Had manually installed few extensions in F15. Since my F16 is an
upgrade, those didnt work.. but guess some of it were creating issues.
cleaned them all up and have reinstalled the above extensions too,
gnome-shell process is behaving MUCH MUCH better today than few days back.
Will continue monitoring it and report back.

I have access to fresh install of ubuntu 11.10 in one of our lab machines,
which i configured to use gnome-shell. Apart from the above extensions, it
had system-monitor too installed. And, it too was ballooning up same way.
After uninstalling all extensions and reloading, i installed the extensions
one-by-one and seeing their effect. Turns out, system-monitor extension is
the culprit there!
