I can't get any handle on how to reduce gworldclock's resource usage. My system tells me (via top) cpu usage is at 0.3%. Updating the timer command from gtk_timer_add to g_timer_add makes no difference.
Manipulating the timer's priority using g_source_set_priority, to G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT_IDLE or G_PRIORITY_LOW does not seem to help (top still reports cpu usage at 0.3%). I don't think I can make any further progress here without assistance. With regards to memory, top reports 13MB virtual, of which 5.4MB is shared. The only obvious place I can think of offhand to reduce the memory footprint is to use a lightweight xml library instead of libxml2, but since libxml2 is shared memory, the gain would not, I think, be real.
