I would it be possible, if not a good idea, to only track object deallocations as the GC traversal trigger? As far as I know, dangling cyclic references cannot be formed when allocating objects. So, this could potentially mitigate the quadratic behavior during allocation bursts. -- Alexandre _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
