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. As I can see here: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/gcmodule.c#L1456 the first one is correct. We should probably fix python docs accordingly. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
