Hmm.. inefficient, yes.. But it's actually QTextEdit that's blowing up. I believe this is the line that does it:

> popup->setItemEnabled( d->id[ IdSelectAll ], (bool)text().length() );

It's pushing all of the widgets contents into a QString only to call length() on it to make sure it isn't zero.. Doesn't seem to be the most efficient way of doing it.. :)

Anyway, I think the real problem is that we use QTextEdit to host more data than it was designed for. Now that we're targetting Qt-3.2, we should try to use the LogText textformat, which is said to reduce memory consumption greatly. We might lose some of the nice formatting, but that's clearly preferable.
