16G is nothing 2day... think about a raster image of UK ! even if it was something smaller, imagine the time saved if you could keep some objects always in memory saving serialization and data loading times....
I don't need nothing really fancy, just something similar to Java Servlets (they keep in memory the objects for the whole servlet life)... googling little bit, I've found this old python framework that implements something like that: http://www.webwareforpython.org/ anybody knows it ?
