I am not deploying it yet. Just running
python server.py
on a Strato virtual server.

VIRT being used is 115M. After visiting a few pages this number has
grown to 138 and next it crashes.
(MySQL is using 333M VIRT). So I guess that I am running out of memory
at all.

I checked and it seems that web.py is using 110M without any
additional code.
So I guess web.py is too 'heavy' for this machine to handle?
