Hi All,

I'm having trouble with some python processes that are using 3GB+ of memory but when I inspect them with either heapy or meliae, injected via pyrasite, those tools only report total memory usage to be 119Mb.

This feels like the old "python high water mark" problem, but I thought that was fixed in 2.6/3.0? Under what circumstances can a Python process still exhibit high memory usage that tools like heapy don't know about?

cheers,

Chris

PS: Full details here of libraries being used and versions here:

This post feels related and seems to suggest the high water mark problem is still there:
