            Bug ID: 5216
           Summary: hgweb uses too much memory on hg.python.org
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: feature
          Priority: wish
         Component: hgweb
          Assignee: bugzilla at selenic.com
          Reporter: victor.stinner at gmail.com
                CC: mercurial-devel at selenic.com

Antoine Pitrou reported that the memory consumption on the
http://hg.python.org/ is a real issue, whereas the CPU is not an issue. He
proposed to explicitly clear data to reduce the memory consumption after each
request:

Is it deliberate to cache a lot of data? Would it be possible to have a
configurable cache? Maybe an option to clear data after each request?
