  jfqd1: (just a suggestion, also not sure if the ruby in question is built with or without it) have you tried it with jemalloc?

  everything in pkgsrc is built with libumem, unless something snuck past my wrappers

  if you want to start drilling down a bit then approaches like perkin.org.uk/posts/reducing-ram-usage-in-pkgin.html can help you identify where the memory is being allocated from, especially if you diff it against earlier versions

  I'm no expert, I'm sure there are better approaches, but it helped me figure some stuff out

  no expert either, but dtrace is so helpful, will give it a try!
