I'm working on the same Buildbot/Katana set-up as Maria.

We tried running full Katana instance under pypy in our staging set-up. It
seemed to work fine, showing the home page, running the builds on the
slaves, etc. However the twisted log was filling up with:

    2015-11-26 13:50:11+0100 [-] Exception ProgrammingError: (2014,
"Commands out of
       sync; you can't run this command now") in method __del__ of
<MySQLdb.cursors.Cursor object
       at 0x00000000061875c8> ignored

This is probably some issue related to pypy garbage collection vs cpython's
reference counting. Not sure if this causing actual problems or not.

Another issue I have noticed was that running 'buildbot create-master'
hangs during "creating database (sqlite:///state.sqlite)" step.

When running unit tests, a bunch of master upgrade tests hangs. A bunch of
other tests fails with DB releated error messages.

Btw, this is on eight branch of the buildbot.
