Hi guys, Sage with the new Cython has a lot of leaks exposed by valgrind: ==9372== LEAK SUMMARY: ==9372== definitely lost: 232,533 bytes in 3,757 blocks. Those leaks are all considered "possibly lost" or "still reachable" with Cython 0.9.6.12, so it seems to be mostly an accounting issue [valgrind's accounting of possibly lost vs. still reachable vs. definitely lost can vary depending on other leaks, but I will spare you the details here]. While we have looked into this in the past at various Sage Days it might be a good idea to put this on the agenda for Dev Day 1 since this currently adds massive noise to the interesting bits when looking for memleaks in Sage. I can add a suppression file, but I would consider that only a last resort. Keep up the great work.
