I was curious if it is normal for there to always be 6 instances of
web.py running. e.g. when i run the ps command i get 6 instances of
python all with different PID's.
e.g.

 1736 root      7228 S    /usr/bin/python /mnt/WebpyTest/main.py
 1737 root      7228 S    /usr/bin/python /mnt/WebpyTest/main.py
 1738 root      7228 S    /usr/bin/python /mnt/WebpyTest/main.py
 1739 root      7228 S    /usr/bin/python /mnt/WebpyTest/main.py
 1740 root      7228 S    /usr/bin/python /mnt/WebpyTest/main.py
 1741 root      7228 S    /usr/bin/python /mnt/WebpyTest/main.py
 1742 root      7228 S    /usr/bin/python /mnt/WebpyTest/main.py

However, when I check the memory usage with the top command I get the
following:

 1736  1735 root     S     7228 23.5  0.0 /usr/bin/python /mnt/
WebpyTest/main.py
 1737  1736 root     S     7228 23.5  0.0 /usr/bin/python /mnt/
WebpyTest/main.py
 1738  1737 root     S     7228 23.5  0.0 /usr/bin/python /mnt/
WebpyTest/main.py
 1739  1737 root     S     7228 23.5  0.0 /usr/bin/python /mnt/
WebpyTest/main.py
 1740  1737 root     S     7228 23.5  0.0 /usr/bin/python /mnt/
WebpyTest/main.py
 1741  1737 root     S     7228 23.5  0.0 /usr/bin/python /mnt/
WebpyTest/main.py
 1742  1737 root     S     7228 23.5  0.0 /usr/bin/python /mnt/
WebpyTest/main.py

I am running this on a very stripped down version of Linux and off a
SD card the system specs are also quite 8MB flash memory, 1GB SD and
only 32MB memory. Hence, it is very important that I use the minimal
amount of resources. I have tried different combinations of Lighttpd
with FastCGI as well as using flups for WSGI, but I am still getting
memory errors always being because main.py used up all the memory.
Apart from my program having a memory leak I just want to know the
following:
1. Is it normal for there to be so many instances of webpy (main.py in
my case)
2. Is it a concern?
3. Any other recommendations to get the web.py memory consumption
down.

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Brendon
