Tim Peters added the comment: @haypo, this has nothing to do with PyMalloc. As I reported in my first message, only 7 PyMalloc arenas are in use at the end of the program, less than 2 MB total. *All* other arenas ever used were released to the OS.
And that's not surprising. The vast bulk of the memory used in the test case isn't in small objects, it's in *strings* of ever-increasing size. Those are gotten by many calls to the system malloc(). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19246> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
