New submission from Kaifeng Zhu <cafe...@gmail.com>: I'm using xml.etree.ElementTree to parse large XML file, while the memory keep increasing consistently.
You can run attached test script to reproduce it. From 'top' in Linux or 'Task Manager' in Windows, the memory usage of python is not decreased as expected when 'Done' is printed. Tested with Python 2.5/3.1 in Windows 7, and Python 2.5 in CentOS 5.3. ---------- components: XML files: test.py messages: 133797 nosy: Kaifeng.Zhu priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: ElementTree memory leak type: resource usage versions: Python 2.5, Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file21669/test.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11849> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
