You must subtract shared from resident to determine how much memory has been "eaten".
Journald uses mmap() for random access within the journal files. These pages are accounted for as shared because they are file-backed and may be paged out by the kernel behind the scenes if memory is needed - they'll just be paged back in from the filesystem if accessed later by journald.
