Comment (by marco):

 I looked a bit more into this. I don't think there are a lot of low
 hanging fruits unfortunately. Here are my findings so far:

  * ~ 1.5 MB in the sugar-clipboard by not loading gtk
  * ~ 1.7 MB in the presence service by not loading gtk
  * ~ 6 MB by not using the GNOME icon theme. I really think we should do
 it, even if just conditionally on the B2. It's a lot of memory which will
 be unused in the vast majority of cases.
