 Hi,
 I'm using libpurple for my XMPP - libpurple transport. For few particular
 users libpurple uses 10MB+ per one connection. I have log from this
 situation. The problem is that memory is not "freed" anywhere. In log MSN
 emails are replaced by random names and corrupted just because of privacy.

 There are also few lines which informs about current memory usage
 ([04/06/10 13:26:02] <MEMORY USAGE BEFORE ADDING BUDDY> 20360). That
 information is read from /proc/self/stat by transport itself and it's in
 MBs.

 I think this is bug in libpurple, because it happens only when transport
 runs with prpl-msn.
