> Anyone know how I can reduce the memory footprint of Python?

I've been playing with this for some time. One of the results of
the resarch was that inline documentation is responsible for 10%
of python's footprint. I've developed a patch to make those strings
optional at compile time. The idea was well accepted, but for some
reason the patch was not applied yet.
