We are using the pymongo driver with mongodb and as it stands, it looks
like each worker gets its own connection.  Is there any way to share a
database connection in memory among the workers?  I've read about ksm on
the readthedocs page, is that applicable here?

We also have a bunch of python objects being stored in memory, would KSM be
helpful in sharing memory among the workers for this?

For example:
Currently we have an identical list being stored on each worker (we keep
the list stored in a python variable because its large and we need to
access it quickly so storing in the uwsgi cache and pickling and unpickling
(the only way I can think of to store a python object in the cache) each
request, would be too slow) and we have 6 workers.  This means we are using
several times the memory we actually need to.   Is there any way to share a
global python object among all of the workers?  All we do is read from it,
we only modify it when we are completely refreshing it periodically.

The overarching question is, how do i share db connections and python
objects globally, so each worker doesn't need to have their own copy of the
python objects and we aren't keeping so many db connections open?
