List,

    Just wanted to let you guys know that after a long fight with lxml
I've been able to improve w3af's memory usage in an almost incredible
way. As seen here [0]

Performance profiling of new develop branch (ab428c5):
 * PSUtils measurement 25 (after 45 minutes of scan): 118.9 MB RSS
 * Requests sent: 23955

Performance profiling of new develop branch (e32e529):
 * PSUtils measurement 24 (after 45 minutes of scan): 1.2 GB RSS
 * Requests sent: 23137

    1.2GB vs. 119 MB. Not bad!

    If you've got some spare minutes give the latest w3af (from the
develop branch) a try!
