Hello Justus, I find it very good that you are trying to reduce the memory consumption of mailman 3. I cannot help in doing this. I hope you find some way to reduce the memory.
Do you know by accident, if the runner processes use identical memory, and by calling https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/madvise.2.html the kernel can somehow detect these identical memory and then use a single instance for all identical regions of memory?

I'd like to contribute a little to Mailman, and I'd like to better understand how the Mailman project is doing nowadays. I have gotten a bugfix merged in the past, but I now have what I think is a fairly uncontroversial cleanup merge request that has neither been merged nor has it gotten comments. - https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/merge_requests/1158 As FOSDEM is around the corner, are any of you going to be there and are up for a chat? Besides cleanups and bugfixes, there are three things I'd like to do: - Improve Mailman to better scale down to small installations - Improve latency of messages - Implement OpenPGP support Here are the things I did so far: - https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/merge_requests/1094 - https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/issues/1050 - https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/-/merge_requests/1166 - I have Mailman running with runners in threads instead of processes, but that is in a proof-of-concept stage at this point and needs some cleaning up (I understand that Mailman is a GNU project that wants copyright assignments, and I have done that in the past for other GNU projects, and would be happy to do that for Mailman, but at the same time I feel like putting up *any* barrier to contributing is unfortunate.)
