In principle pure Python code should have no memory leaks - if there are, they're on Python itself. Maybe this is an allocation problem, not an actual leak; if you can write a program that reproduces the problem, post a bug at http://bugs.python.org -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
