Once again, the memory managed by GC doesn't explain the overall
footprint.

If you have some tool that can produce a detailed memory map, stating
which part and which library uses what memory, please do.  Otherwise,
the most important thing is to try to describe what you did from the
beginning of the session, including the files you visited and other
features/commands you invoked that could at some point consume memory.

Thanks.
