mlterm supports multiple sessions with about third the memory footprint of konsole and with basically almost all of its features.

There's something I can't figure out, though: its memory usage doesn't seem to grow enough when I enlarge the size of the history: I changed the history size from 1000 to 8000 and ran a command to fill the buffer entirely.

and after:
