That could be a possible problem. I will look in to it today and try
and find out if that occurs and in that case how often.

Good to know that works :)
Did you also do the same for free and realloc to keep up with your
accounting?
The more I thought about it, the more I realized that calls to other
library functions could cause address space expansion if that code
internally called malloc or mmap.
See, I can use the O

I have done the thing you are requesting. You can easily create your
own memory pool and have Python to use it.
I added some rows to Pyconfig.h:
#ifdef malloc
#undef malloc
#endif /*malloc*/
#define malloc Python_malloc
Then I have some overhead in my own Python_malloc(size_t nBytes)

Let's say I have an OS that can't limit the amount of memory a process
is allowed to consume, but I want to run some Python code in a
simulated low memory environment...
Is there a way to tell Python to limit the size of it's heap? Can you
ask it to use a function other than malloc through the C
