Sorry for posting again. Does that mean If I have single st window
open it'll allocate 120MiB but won't actually use that?? And also

Thanks. If that's the case then topic closed.

this part I'm not sure though.

With HISTSIZE being 2000 memory consumed is around 8MiB
And for 4 it's 120MiB. This is a large number for terminal.
Whereas for urxvt I set saveLines to 65000 and it consumes less around
8MiB. It increases when I have more lines in scrollback .
So my question is if there's a patch that can mak
