How are you calculating the memory usage? I remember from mod_perl times 
that if you preload as much code as possible before forking of 
plack/redis workers much of the memory will be shared between processes.

So maybe the actual memory usage is much lower than what you expect it 
to be. And if it's not, then we should investigate how to pull as much 
`use` statements into pieces of code that are loaded before a `fork` 
happens.
