Hi,
I wanted to give it a go as well, and so I did. :D

http://proli.net/meu/kde/massif.out.3278-beforeBranchChange
http://proli.net/meu/kde/massif.out.5283-afterBranchChange

http://proli.net/meu/kde/massif.out.5759-afterBranchChange << this is
after playing with it for a while and showing the system stray stuff.

It seems that it saves quite some memory, at least the same amount on
my system than on yours. It's weird how in takes much more memory on
my system than on yours. Maybe because I have 2 screens here?
With regards to runtime, it feels a bit smoother, but that might be
just me wishing for it.
