If the problem is that Python is using too much memory, then PyPy may
be able to help you.  PyPy is an alternative implementation of Python,
and by defaiult uses a minimark garbage collector.
https://pypy.readthedocs.org/en/release-2.4.x/garbage_collection.html

You will have to write your own bindings for the CPLEX C library, though,
using cffi. http://cffi.readthedocs.org/en/latest/overview.html  (since
the bindings you have assume the CPython ref counting gc).

But if your C program is itself using too much memory, then this probably
won't help.

Discuss this more on pypy-dev@python.org or the #pypy channel on freenode.
People on pypy-dev would appreciate not getting libreoffice spreadsheet
attachments but just the figures as plain text.
