[mod_python] Using python profiler with mod_python

I've had useful results too using profile with mod_python. Has anyone
written a similar module for tracking memory usage?

The interface to the profile module is a little unusual, I use 
some quick and dirty code similar to this to append profiling results
to every request during debugging:

------- album.py ------------

from mod_python import apache
_profiling_req=None

def handler(req, profiling=True):
    if profiling:
        import profile, pstats, sys, StringIO, tempfile
        global _profiling_req
        _profiling_req = req
        temp = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile()
        profile.run("import album; album.handler(album._profiling_req,
        False)", temp.name)
        stats = pstats.Stats(temp.name)
        strstream = StringIO.StringIO()
        sys.stdout = strstream
        stats.sort_stats("cumulative")
        stats.print_stats()
        req.write("<pre>" + strstream.getvalue() + "</pre>)
        _profiling_req = None
    else:
        # regular handler code goes here...
    return apache.OK
