New issue 619: Very large test suites take *far* too much RAM
https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/issue/619/very-large-test-suites-take-far-too-much

Alex Gaynor:

The cryptography test suite on OS X -- which is 149150 test functions (almost 
entirely generated with `@pytest.mark.parametrize`) -- results in a CPython 2.7 
process which, after collection, takes 1.26GB or so.

This is about 8KB per test. This seems like *way* too much, it would be 
fantastic to bring this significantly down.
