Soo... if shutting off GC extends time between crashes for some folks from every 15 minutes to 3 times a day, my advise is to shut off GC.
Now I can really confirm that gc.disable() is enough to avoid the crashes (no need to recompile python --without-gc). And as far as we could notice, it didn't start leaking like crazy. We haven't been able to identify any noticeable increase in memory consumption. If it is leaking we will need some more time to notice it.
