Yesterday for the first time I deployed web2py on a commercial platform (Webfaction) and today I received two messages from Webfaction that I was using more memory (135Mb) than what the Shared 1 option allowed for (80Mb). And that was before the application was in full use! I have requested an upgrade to Shared 3.
Now my question: How do I keep memory usage down on such a platform when I have to serve 1. a fairly complex database and 2. a possibility of a lot of data? I chose Postgresql as database thinking that with the efficiency of Postgresql as backend I would avoid using too much memory. Regards Johann -- "The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God..."
