The memory usage per process seems reasonable to me, based on what I
see on my own machine.

That means it's the 15 processes that's problematic. It will be
interesting to see how these current test runs go.

It may be the case that with the reduced memory limit, your machine
may not be able to run concurrent slaves for 2.7, 3.2 and 3.x as I
believe it does now.

Cheers,
Nick.
