New submission from Matthias Troffaes <matthias.troff...@gmail.com>:
The Python C API provides PyXXX_ClearFreeList functions to allow the float, int, etc... freelists to be freed, potentially releasing memory to the OS earlier. Currently, there is no such API for the dict, set, and list freelists. The attached patch adds PyXXX_ClearFreeList functions to the C API, so the dict, set, and list freelists can be freed as well. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: py3k-clearfreelist-dict_set_list.patch keywords: patch messages: 91520 nosy: matthiastroffaes severity: normal status: open title: PyXXX_ClearFreeList for dict, set, and list type: behavior versions: Python 3.2 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14708/py3k-clearfreelist-dict_set_list.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6695> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
