Martin Smith added the comment:

I'm persuaded that this is not a sustained memory leak.

Thanks to Martin Panter and Benjamin Peterson for the tests and the careful 
explanations.

Apologies for distracting busy people.

[issue25512] apparent memory leak using ctypes

[Martin Smith]

New submission from Martin Smith:

Attached file demonstrates a memory leak arising in ctypes (I think).  Leak 
occurs in both 2.7 and 3.5, though at different rates.

Humble apologies if I've screwed up somewhere.  Very nervous about submitting 
this.
