STINNER Victor added the comment: When calling gc.collect() after each test, I don't see any leak anymore.
doTest() has a small leak: it prepends a path to sys.path, but it never removes it. Try attached leak2.py: it displays something like +254 kB. Uncomment the two following lines and the output will be close to +0 kB. #sys.path = old_path #gc.collect() ---------- nosy: +haypo Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38675/leak2.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23769> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
