I get some high memory usage when using channel tabs, about 10 channel tabs open using 71 MBs of RAM. After closing tabs and disabling feature memory went down to about 21 mbs. This is in 1.1.0.

    Please add a comment indicating the scrollback limit you have configured. Memory usage is replicated for each tab and keeping eboard connected for a long time with no scrollback limit is likely to lead to high memory usage, and channel tabs only multiply the issue. Setting a scrollback limit to something like 2000 lines will probably fix it, if you have it unlimited.

    In an initial check, I didn't find any memory leaks.

    Maybe a separate scrollback limit for channel tabs is a good idea? Most FICS users don't need anything like 1000 lines for them, while those who chat heavily can benefit from a lower limit on the main console. (not Angel - just a nobody)

    Hi, I have default settings for scrollback limit = 1,000 lines , out of those channels, most were low traffic except 50.
