Does the script print anything, and are you running from pythonwin or
python.exe ? Pythonwin accumulates output indefinitely, whereas
python.exe eventually starts discarding it once you exceed the output
buffer size of the console window.
Could you post the script that demonstrates the problem ?
I'll try to set it up to run for a while in debug mode to see if
any problems show up with python refcounts or COM interface
refcounts.
