memory usage. And although interwiki.py in general is using a large amount
of memory, your specific case has a different origin (being the use of
the ReferringPageGenerator, which results in a memory *leak*).

You may be able to partially mitigate your problem by using
interwiki_contents_on_disk = True,
but this will not solve the actual memory leak - it will only release
memory used by the page contents.

If you'd like to discuss details on your problem, please mail to the
pywikipedia mailing list <pywikipedi...@lists.wikimedia.org> or visit on
IRC.
