Title:
  nm-applet uses 1767Mb of RAM - some kind of joke?

Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:

  Yes, that's 1767Mb VIRT, 400Mb resident.

  Unless I have half a million wireless networks in range, that's
  unreasonable, even for gnome.

  Needless to say, I haven't. I'm up a hill, some way from civilization,
  and we have three networks.

  That's 133Mb of RAM each, or over half a gig of virtsize per base
  station.

  I can't count that high.

  I can run a JVM in less than half a gig!

  Just not nm-applet.
