I'm not sure what this is supposed to demonstrate. Has gnome-shell been running
for 16 days?

That doesn't show a memory leak. What was the memory usage at start-up?
For ref, my gnome-shell instance appears to have been running 8 days (odd,
I don't remember restarting it then) and is using
awk '/Name|VmSize|VmPeak/' /proc/$(pidof gnome-shell)/status
Name: gnome-shell
VmPeak: 1250636 kB
VmSize: 1190912 kB
