If you aren't using IRC in Adium, please ignore this. I just made an
improvement (assuming it doesn't regress things, anyway...) to
ByObject prefs handling to avoid writing out empty entries. Because
*all* entries on IRC were empty or (in the case of /msg) nearly so,
this mostly improves handling of large channels. I was able to drop my
ByObject file from somewhere in the 500-600kB range to 236kB by
manually deleting all my IRC entries.
Since I expect other people may want to duplicate this, here's the
steps I used:
1) plutil -convert xml1 ByObjectPrefs.plist
2) Open ByObjectPrefs.plist in a text editor, find the first and last
irc entries, delete everything between
3) plutil -convert binary1 ByObjectPrefs.plist
