Stefan Krah added the comment: Static types leak memory on finalization, see PEP 3121. Normally it does not matter, but you see it when embedding Python.
PEP 3121 isn't widely implemented because a) it complicates the code for large modules and b) there are some performance issues. There are several other open issues for the problem, so I'm closing this one. ---------- nosy: +skrah resolution: -> duplicate stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25302> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
