[Corpora-List] Python Benchmarks Using Lots of Memory

[Carl Friedrich Bolz]

Hello all,

I'm a computer science PhD student at the University of Düsseldorf 
working on improving the memory behavior (and also performance) of a 
Python implementation [1]. For that reason I am looking for "real-world" 
Python programs that consume a lot of memory when running (around 50MB 
RAM or above) and ideally do a lot of string manipulations. Possible 
examples could be corpus analysis tools like concordances or 
n-gram/collocation analyzers.

So if you have written such a Python program or script and want to send 
it to me, I would be very grateful (and would treat them confidentially 
if you wish). The benefit for you would be that future Python 
implementations might become optimized for precisely your use case :-).

Thanks a lot and best wishes,

Carl Friedrich Bolz
