Python templating comparison by memory consumption
Another comparison between:
standard formatting;

Mako
Genshi
Jinja2
Here the code I used for measuring:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
NAME = 'name'
def render1():
template = "<p>Hello %s!</p>"
return template % NAME
def render2():
from string import Template
template = Template("<p>Hello ${name}!</p>")
return template.substitute(dict(name=NAME))
def render3():
from mako.template import Template
template = Template("<p>Hello ${name}!</p>")
return template.render(name=NAME)
def render4():
from genshi.template import MarkupTemplate
tmpl = MarkupTemplate('<p>Hello $name!</p>')
stream = tmpl.generate(name=NAME)
return stream.render('xhtml')
def render5():
from jinja2 import Template
template = Template('<p>Hello
