We recently ported our app to 0.6.4, and enabled cextensions. Our app's memory usage ballooned, and HTTP response times with it due to the extra load on the garbage collector. Turns out the DecimalResultProcessor cextension code is a bit leaky! :)
I've opened ticket http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/ticket/1978 including a patch that plugs those leaks and includes tests to verify that they're plugged. The changeset is also available at https://bitbucket.org/taavi_burns/sqlalchemy/changeset/c90e0cfdf9cc for review. I was considering marking the new tests with @testing.requires.cextensions since nobody should expect the Python version to leak like this.
