I know that the server uses a lot of memory, but as far as I've seen it uses that much right away. Are you sure that it actually _leaks_ memory? Still, it certainly seems like a lot of memory for a scrabble server. My initial guess is that all the python packages it uses - zope, nevow, and twisted - make a rather lazy and heavy design. Anyway, most users should not install pyscrabble-server. I think it's better to gather at a small number of central servers. Pyscrabble doesn't have a meta server like Pioneers has. -- Magnus Holmgren
