Sorry for mailing this list just to ask, but I have a question regarding pypy's memory usage. I have an application which starts many child processes in order to do heavy processing. When running my app under CPython, it uses about 1GB of memory, but when running with pypy it goes up to almost 3GB. I tried calling gc.collect() at some points on the code as well as setting some GC ambient vars, but without much success. Why is pypy using so much more memory, and how can I reduce it? Is there a way of using refcount instead of GC?
Thanks in Advance, Matheus Salvia
