Hi,
Sorry for intervening, but a quick answer to your last request: No. There are
multiple pluggable GC’s that PyPy can compile with, incminimark being the
default now IIRC, but refcounting is not an option. It is unlikely to do you
any good, though. It saves you a bit of memory between the app

No, PyPy cannot use refcounting.

This is still too vague to know why memory usage is so high.
Thanks for the answer, Armin.
The application is corrently using about 15 processes, but this is a
configurable number.
By your information I can assume that the process overhead would be of
about 600MB,
which is not a negligible number but still doesn't fully explain all of the
memory usage.

This is a question that doesn't have a single answer. You need to

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.
