STINNER Victor <vstin...@python.org> added the comment:

I looked for "Python COUNT_ALLOCS" on the Internet. This special build seems to 
be very badly documented on the Internet. Outside Python own documentation, I 
found almost zero reference to it. IMHO it's basically unused.


(*) bpo-33058: Two years ago (2018), attempt to make COUNT_ALLOCS build ABI 
compatible with release build. Extract:

> tracemalloc can't distinguish between the usage of gc allocs, normal mallocs, 
> and free list reuse.
