Not something I created from scratch, but I had the chance to work on a very large Django codebase at TVSquared.

We ended up taking out most of stock Django and only using the router and controller functions.

Why did you do that, and what did you replace stock django with?
We only used the router, handler functions and the template engine. We didn't use any models (because we used the MongoDB api directly) or the Object-Oriented controllers, and (if I remember correctly), fairly limited use of the fancier forms API.

So it was a fairly minimal subset of Django.
