These are all on x86-64. You'll get slightly different results on a 32 bit arch.
Largest structures, by size:
qemud_vm_def: 16608 4 qemud_vm_os_def: 16436 1 _testConn: 14504 2 qemud_vm: 12368 2 qemud_network: 8240 0 qemud_vm_disk_def: 4376 2 qemud_driver: 4192 1 qemud_vm_net_def: 4136 2 xenXMConfCache: 4112 0
Hmm, practically all of those large structs come from the statically allocated char arrays of PATH_MAX. Switching them to be malloc'd would save far more than packing the structs.
