libgnutls allocates about 65 kb of memory inside gnutls_global_init. This initialization function is called by the initializer for gnome vfs's ssl module when gnome vfs is intialized. This means that any vfs using program -- even if it never uses the ssl module (which is probably rare) -- uses 65 kb of memory.

The stack traces for allocations look like:
