Something really strange is happening to me. I've stumbled upon a memory leak that happens only when answering a POST request using Twisted and Pypy.
The problem is described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21063842/using-twisted-cyclone-pypy-to-handle-post-requests-cause-a-memory-leak It could either be a bug in the Python code that handles the request and leaks, a but in Twisted, or in Pypy. I've been investing the problem for weeks now, with the following conclusion: * CPython does not leak with this code * Tornado with Pypy does not leak with this code * Answering GET requests instead of POST requests does not leak with this code * I tried switching GCs, collecting using gc.collect and setting PYPY_GC_MAX, those attempts did not help * This happens both on Linux and Mac Insights as to how to debug this are very welcome.
