I was thinking about this a bit more and because the refcount bit is too high, the GC algorithm will be "fine" in the sense that won't break. It will just treat immortal objects as referenced from outside any cycle isolate (because the refcount hopefully will never reach 0), which is consistent with the fact that they are in the permanent generation. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40255> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
