What backend are you using -- some of the GUI backends have known leaks that are outside the control of mpl. So you may want to use the agg backend (or ps, etc.). If you still gt a leak, consult the memory leak FAQ and follow instructions there http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq.html#LEAKS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
