Comment:

 Ok, sending this back over to Andrew. The host has 1 GB memory and the
 consensus tracker is gobbling up almost all of it. The host is eating into
 swap which is probably why the consensus tracker is taking quite a bit
 longer now, overlapping with the other checks.

 Would it be prohibitively costly to bump the memory to 1.5 GB? If so then
 maybe I should go back to running this from my desktop here at home.
