The problem is my server hits memory usage threshold, and starts giving me errors like Oracle unable to spawn off new session stating Out of Memory error and what not. I won't be bothered much if I have the luxury of available memory for other processes to use. If only if the UNIX understand my concerns and release the allocation when I issue gc.collect() or the gc.collect() takes place. :)

That memory will be reused by Python for subsequent allocations. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
