Cool -- looks like just moving to os16 + metacity saved at least 14
MiB[1] (not counting any python savings) and Xorg grew by 15 MiB.

1. 2 + 6 + 6 MiB: matchbox - metacity, Terminal, and Journal MiB
savings.  These are obviously not numbers to rely on, but they're
probably a decent in-kind test (as I saw net memory usage grow, and so
did you, but the growths are on the same order of magnitude. As it
looks like many other things might have got a lot better, this still
seems pretty promising to me.
