My emacs starts at about 120mb virtual. when I start gnus, it goes up
to about 220 mb. This digit will grow to about 400 mb in something
like 14 days, then I usually restart emacs.

Im not sure Gnus is responsible, but how do I find out?

memory-usage.el doesnt really blame gnus, or anything in particular.

Is it possible to iterate all gnus-* variables, and see how much
memory they consume?

That's an awful lot of memory!  Emacs fires up with 11-12 MB of virtual
size here, and I'm running a debugging build of FreeBSD, including a
debugging version of the system malloc() implementation.  A typical run
of CVS Emacs looks like:

,--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|   PID USERNAME    THR PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE    TIME    CPU COMMAND
| 78843 giorgos       1  -8    0 11640K 10288K piperd   0:00  1.03% emacs
`--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Which version of Emacs are you using?  On which platform?  How was it
installed?
