Robert Collins added the comment:

I'd like to see a definite profile of a bloated stdlib test process before we 
assume we know the issue - the usual leak I see in test code is used test 
objects, and I'm not sure we've ported the usual fix for that into unittest yet 
(we should).

As far as linecache is concerned, we shouldn't be triggering linecache 
population except when a traceback is actually rendered, and so on a passing 
test run there should be little hitting it at all outside of tests that 
actually test rendering of tracebacks.
