Instance methods are created on-the-fly. In your example the memory
associated with the a.f bound method (not the same as the unbound method
A.f) is freed before you reference a.g. That chunk of memory just happens
to get reused for the bound method associated with a.g. Here's a
demonstration:

>>> class A(object):
... def f(): pass
... def g(): pass
...
>>> a = A()
>>> x = a.f
>>> y = a.g
>>> id(x)
17969240
>>> id(y)
17969440
>>> id(a.f)
17969400
>>> id(a.g)
17969400
