Comment(by kermit):

 As this seems like a leak issue, it may be relevant that after running for
 almost a weak, closing all pidgin windows, disconnecting from all networks
 by unchecking them, turning off all plugins, setting the 'close
 conversations immediately' option, with 'hide conversations' having always
 been set to 'never' with no other conversation hiding, pidgin is still
 using 235MB of memory, 9 threads, 245 handles, 601 user objects, and 437
 GDI objects, versus 20MB, 96 handles, 3 threads, 17 user objects, 44 GDI
 objects, after a restart.
