[Switching to Italian language :-) ] Era vero fino alla versione 2.4 dell'interprete; dalla 2.5 la memoria non più usata viene effettivamente restituita al sistema operativo. http://evanjones.ca/python-memory-part3.html -- Nicola Larosa - http://www.tekNico.net/ The Chinese built the Great Wall early in our civilization not to keep the Mongol hordes out, but to keep the newly enslaved and dubious peasants, the pawns of the new civilization, in. To keep them from Just Walking Away. - Dave Pollard, December 2007 _______________________________________________ Python mailing list Python@lists.python.it http://lists.python.it/mailman/listinfo/python
