My work-in-progress patch uses for example these filters: tracemalloc_filters = [ tracemalloc.Filter(False, '<frozen importlib._bootstrap>', all_frames=True), tracemalloc.Filter(False, tracemalloc.__file__, all_frames=True), ] ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19816> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
