Hello, some of us still care about memory usage

[John Lindgren <john lindgren aol com>]

Hi,

Over three weeks ago I posted a patch to the bug tracker (#680059) that 
significantly reduces the memory usage of all GTK+ 3.x applications by 
avoiding creating thousands of duplicate GtkWidgetPath elements.  For 
example, Audacious has an RSS size of 15.7 MB before patching GTK+ but 
only 13.4 MB after -- that's a reduction of over 2 MB from a single patch.

However, there has been no response whatsoever, from anyone, in those 
three weeks.  Has GTK+ given up on listening to input from application 
developers?  Given the lack of Win32 support, the increased memory 
usage, and now this silence from the developers, should I just give up 
on GTK+ 3.x entirely and fork GTK+ 2.x?

Sincerely disappointed,

-- John Lindgren
