I had the same issue, and found some information that might be of some interest. If you have ``ionice`` on your system, it'll use it. But as a lot of people noticed, this doesn't change anything, which means that ``ionice`` is not working, which is a second issue. Digging into this last issue,

@PeterBittner Do you really think I should provide a one line fix as a patch here ? And this is problematic because what should be kept is the option to choose the size via settings. My fix customize the source code and create a binary package with 24px, and 24px is not an ideal size for everyone

My fix was tested and used throughout all version from 12.10 up to 14.04 (I've updated it each time). It's not perfect as there are some little sorting issues. Nevertheless, it fixes a few complaints on empathy. The most easy one is the icon size for avatars.
