If you're creating many differentobjects, it could also be related to
Sage caching too much stuff in its coercion model and finally eating
all the memory.
See trac #715 and tickets mentioned therein.
Not sure how this stuff is affected by "reset()".
Could you provide a minimal and explicit example ?
