New submission from Yaroslac <flower.m...@gmail.com>:
As I can see here https://github.com/python/devguide/blob/master/garbage_collector.rst#collecting-the-oldest-generation > the GC only triggers a full collection of the oldest generation if the ratio > long_lived_pending / long_lived_total is above a given value (hardwired to > 25%) But in the python docs here https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/gc.html#gc.set_threshold > When the number of allocations minus the number of deallocations exceeds > threshold0, collection starts. Initially only generation 0 is examined. If > generation 0 has been examined more than threshold1 times since generation 1 > has been examined, then generation 1 is examined as well. Similarly, > threshold2 controls the number of collections of generation 1 before > collecting generation 2. So, which one is correct? ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 374665 nosy: Yaroslav, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Python Devguide differs from python docs type: resource usage versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41455> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
