New submission from renlifeng:
If func creates lots objects and appends them to a list, and runs over and
over, pool.map(func...) will eventually eat up all memories. Cleaning the list
at the end of func does not help.
One can reproduce by running the attached file.
By contrast, after replacing ThreadPool with the theading module (see the
commented out lines), memory usage will not grow continuously.
By the way, I used what's in Debian stretch, i.e. python 2.7.11 and 3.5.1.
