The leak seems to be due to the nested definitions of the Exception types A and B. It goes away if I move them out of the function so that it's like: class A(Exception): pass class B(Exception): pass def test_no_hang_on_context_chain_cycle2(): try: try: raise A() except A as _a: a = _a try: raise B() except B as _b: b = _b raise b except B: pass ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44895> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
