[maemo-developers] N810 Resets

I did a fresh install and I noticed that those messages appear anyway in 
every boot I do, be it recovering from a hw watchdog reboot or not. 
Unfortunately the problem seems to persist even after a clean install the 
device reboots when the application utilizes a lot of resources. 

I did notice however that the whole device became unresponsive, at that 
point my application was using 195MB of memory which was triggering a disk 
mapping since it had exceeded the physical memory limit. I guess it boils 
down into limiting the amount of memory python could use from the system 
since I've got no control over the memory allocation that the interpreter 
does.

Thanks,
Alex
