I think the leak happens when we invoke GC while the recursion limit is exceeded. It goes way if make this change: def recurse_in_body_and_except(): try: recurse_in_body_and_except() except RecursionError as e: gc.disable() recurse_in_body_and_except() gc.enable() I also added a __del__ to B and saw it being called when recursion limit is small (though adding the __del__ makes the leak go away. Actually just adding "def f(): pass" is enough to make it go away). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44895> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
