 I recently discovered a bug in my application that is running on Django
 1.8.18 with python 2.7.14. This code is used to retrieve names using a
 slug:

 {{{
 try:
     record = record_class.objects.get(**filter_params)

 except record_class.MultipleObjectsReturned:
     # deal with multiple records
 }}}

 Most names are single objects, but occasionally a name like 'not provided'
 will come through and return 1,000 results or more. In that instance,
 record_class.objects.get(**filter_params) spikes in memory usage from 56mb
 to 344mb. On Heroku, running this query a few times quickly maxes out all
 available memory, and the app stays that way until the dynos are
 restarted.
