[Pythonmac-SIG] memory size for Python applets?

[Wolfgang Keller]

Is there any other method than trial and error to determine or at least
estimate the memory size required for a Python Applet?

The memory size for the Python interpreter itself is set to around 1.5 MB
'minimum' and almost 8 MB (!) 'preferred'. This seems a LOT to me.

A simple example applet like the imagebrowser requires more than 4 MB to
open and display a .jpg.file of less than 100 kB. Is this normal?

My Mac does have enough memory for this, but I would like to use Python to
write small scripts and applets. Several MB imho is a little bit too much
just for a script with a trivial UI (a preferences dialog box) that does
trivial things like watching folders, starting apps, working with files,
sending applescript command and the like.

TIA,

Wolfgang Keller
