I have noticed large memory usages for some time now,

my gwibber is 2.32.2-0ubuntu2, and last night i was unable to hibernate
because gwibber was using ~1.2gb

yes, it had been running for a long time, i dont notice the usage with
4gb ram, but my swap is only about half that size.

Title:
  gwibber uses a lot of memory

Status in Gwibber:
  In Progress
Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  gwibber seems to be using a lot of RAM for being such a simple
  application. Here's my current "top" output for gwibber:

    PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND            
   4662 mkanat    20   0  607m 109m  21m S  0.0  5.5   1:29.76 gwibber            

    As you can see, it's using over 100MB of RES and 607MB in Virt
  (which is a real mystery to me, though Res is of course what I care
  about more).

    I have one Twitter account and one Facebook Status Updates feed
  configured.

    It doesn't seem to be leaking memory, it's just always using around
  100MB.
