i've learned that i don't know how to figure this out. i tried using the sys.getsizeof() on globals in various locations in the code and that always remained constant even while the memory size of the instance changed.
i did notice that by adding the toolbar to the response on welcome/default/index that it adds .5-1MB to the instance memory usage per page refresh. is there some way that views or view environments can be polluting the global namespace? i also noticed a call in gluon/main.py to gc.collect() every 100 requests.....so is there something we know we are leaving around? i tried playing with calling it more than once every 100 but got unpredictable results. any ideas on how i can better track this? i don't know much about figuring out python memory usage in general, let alone in the GAE environment - so i'm happy to try any tools/tests anyone can recommend. thanks! christian
