While researching this bug I started to wonder if it wouldn't be
better to apply with Memory Usage Profiler project:
<http://wiki.python.org/moin/MemoryUsageProfiler>.

There is only two days left, but I am not an absolute newbie in this area.
I have been using PySizer, debugging my programs with GC and by
by-hand reading of /proc/PID/smaps. I am aware of object's structures,
pymalloc and arenas.

Two questions then:

1. Is anybody working on this one already?
2. Are you, mentors, more interested in bugs patching or in MUP?
