That's debatable, of course, but Yes, it's more efficient for the ordinary use case of the GTK stack -- let the OS reclaim memory on exit -- although it's slightly more awkward for GTK app developers who want to check for true leaks in our apps. If there were a gtk_cleanup() I'd probably use it, but I'm not going to fault the GTK guys for not providing such a function. I think they're doing a great job, and I'm OK with using a suppression file when I'm checking my app's memory use.
