Oh. I missed this part, that's why I didn't understand Tim's remark.

So the issue comes the Windows heap allocator. I don't see any obvious 
improvment that Python can do to improve the memory usage. I close the issue.

You have to modify your application to allocate objects differently, to limit 
manually the fragmentation of the heap. Another option, maybe more complex, is 
to create a subprocess to process data, and destroy the process to release the 
memory. multiprocessing helps to implement that.

I will maybe try jemalloc on Windows, but I prefer to open a new issue if I 
find something interesting.

----------
resolution:  -> fixed
status: open -> closed
