Thunar is now also working in gtk3, or at least, parts of it 
(exo-icon-view is not working). Results are more or less equal: a size 
difference of ~2.5 MiB. Independent of the number of files used.

  7.2 MiB +   2.1 MiB =   9.3 MiB thunar (gtk3, 15 files)
  5.2 MiB +   1.5 MiB =   6.7 MiB thunar (gtk2, 15 files)

10.9 MiB +   2.1 MiB =  13.1 MiB thunar (gtk3, 1680 files)
  9.1 MiB +   1.5 MiB =  10.6 MiB thunar (gtk2, 1680 files)

The shared size will also drop a bit more if we port more gtk3 apps 
that use the xfce libraries.

Speed feels more or less the same (hard to measure that on an i7 ;-).
