We're running a small online course management application with a
JavaScript based frontend and a catalyst/dbic backend (mostly accessed
via JSON based API, 25 tables, quite some logic in 20 controllers).

Cat is using only approx. 50MB of memory, which is great. Although we
do no great deal of caching yet. But this will be done using dbd or
memcached anyway, so it won't increase the memsize of cat.
And we have yet to find any memleaks, the app is running for months with now...
