I should probably have a dedicated acct for the transports.
I understand that 245 megs are shared between threads, but on a
machine with just over 260 megs available w/o the transport running
peaking consumption is bad news. Sometimes ICQ transport peaks out and
I can't even login remotely to kill it, because there's not enought
memory to spawn a shell process.

And also my Python experience is very limited, and so is my time. I
just can't dedicate anything to try and run profilers, to determine
the cause of this issue. That's why I try to at least inform the
developers as best I can.

I'm running:

2.6.9-023stab046.2-enterprise #1 SMP Mon Dec 10 15:22:33 MSK 2007 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Python 2.4.3 (#1, Mar 14 2007, 18:51:08)
[GCC 4.1.1 20070105 (Red Hat 4.1.1-52)] on linux2

slabtop
fopen /proc/slabinfo: No such file or directory (this is a virtuozzo
VPS, afaict).
