That's odd. When I last checked, CouchDB took a lot more memory. Unless you are doing something very odd with how you model your data ("select (key, value) from attributes where recored_id = ?" ... why are you even using SQL then?). I expect that slimming down the data model was the main factor, or you simply didn't want to use SQL at all (or your data wasn't really structured enough).
