Oh, I just realized that I forgot to explain why I'm starting with
unit tests. I ran the Python test suite using -X tracemalloc (tracing
all memory allocations) because the test suite is a nice tool to
stress a new module (tracemalloc). The test suite creates many
threads, subprocesses, send random signals, etc.

That's why I started to monitor the test suite. I know that it's not
the most critical part of Python :-)
