I'm pretty sure. When I did

 p setattr(self,'q',dict([(xxx,xxx) for xxx in range(1300)]))

the memory increased trivially (less than 1 MB) but when I did

 p setattr(self,'q',list([list(xxx)+list(xxx)+list(xxx)+list(xxx) for
xxx in self.data]))

it increased by 600 MB.

After getting back to the original 900 MB memory usage, doing

 p setattr(self,'q',dict([(xxx,xxx) for xxx in range(1400)]))

gave a memory error suggesting it isn't the amount of memory available
that is the problem but something like fragmentation.

Thanks,
