Wireshark allocates space to the 'Packet List Window' according to the space
requirement of the last opened capture file.

Thus, after opening and closing a capture file with 200 packets, if one opens a
capture file with 20 packets, the 'Packet List Window' allocates vertical space
for 200 packets instead of space enough to display 20 packets. This results in
a lot of whitespace beneath the last packet. The vertical scroll bar allows the
user to scroll down into this whitespace area.
