Before we start using CouchDB more extensively, how about making erlang
processes drinking the CPU at a steady 1% of a 2GHz Core 2 Duo, and making the
whole set of CouchDB things take less memory?

My findings, from using Gwibber so far: If I kill gwibber and all the erlang and
couch things, my battery power consumption drops by approximately 2 Watts, from
~16W to ~14W, gaining me approximately half an hour worth of battery. Surely a
microblogging client, and potentially more things using Couch shouldn't take
this much power? Or actually, just couch running alone is bad enough.
