$ rm -r __pycache__/; ./python repro2.py ready <module 'anon_city_hoods' from '/home/antoine/cpython/opt/anon_city_hoods.py'> 1047656 VmHWM: 1047656 kB VmRSS: 50660 kB $ ./python repro2.py ready <module 'anon_city_hoods' from '/home/antoine/cpython/opt/anon_city_hoods.py'> 77480 VmHWM: 77480 kB VmRSS: 15664 kB My guess is that memory fragmentation prevents the RSS mark to drop any further, though one cannot rule out the possibility of an actual memory leak. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24085> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
