In function of time != in function of size. The timer may trigger too late. And anyway the point was to do it in autopilot mode, I already fixed my app with a gc.collect() after releasing the huge piece of memory. I'll try to write a testcase for it, that if python would be doing what I suggest, wouldn't push a system into heavy swap. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
