New submission from James Bowman <bowmana...@gmail.com>:
import sys
def foo():
x = [o] * 100
raise ArithmeticError
o = "something"
print sys.getrefcount(o)
try:
foo()
except ArithmeticError:
pass
print sys.getrefcount(o)
-------------------------------------------
Gives:
4
104
Looking at the CPython source, FrameObject's deallocator does actually
decrement refcounts of its locals and arguments. Guessing that the FrameObject
is not being deallocated.
