Comment:

 Okay, I've tried to reproduce this.  On a 32 bit linux system I see the
 current git .xpi increasing RAM usage by about 45MB at startup.  That
 leads me to guess that you're on a 64 bit OS, where pointers are twice as
 large?

 Before we barrel ahead with a sqlite storage structure, we should work out
 where the bloat is really coming from (the rule_store.targets object?  The
 RegExp objects in each RuleSet?  Some combination of these?) and figure
 out a solution that addresses it specifically.
