   I see, thanks for background. I didn't look closely so just assumed it was 
about GPU memory.
   
   Re: "I cannot imagine what memory problems will be caused during 
destruction".
   
   I'm not an expert, but I think that in general destruction order is 
undefined for global variables and it can cause memory related problems if the 
memory an object needs during destruction has been freed before its destructor 
runs. Because the order of destruction is undefined things often seem to run 
fine until you get unlucky and the order changes.
   
   See the issue I mentioned earlier, or this one: 
https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/12613
   
   No idea if it applies here or not though.
