I tried top initially but I couldn't get it to return private memory
at all. I'm not sure if that's just a quirk of Red Hat or a quirk of
Webfaction's shared hosting setup.

mod_python.so is about 4MB. It doesn't show libpython2.x.so as one of
the shared libraries.

About 4MB for the parent process, and 13MB for the two child
processes.

3.2.8.

It's been a couple of hours since the hard restart and memory usage is
still at about 35MB. I'm now wondering if perhaps the last time I did
a full restart (if ever), I'd left Debug = True in the settings.py,
and the SQL query storage hadn't been emptied or some other junk.
Perhaps doing the full stop/start with Debug = False set might've
cleared out all the garbage. I'll watch it over the next couple of
hours with my fingers crossed...
