In my experience, RSS is a coarse measure of the memory usage. I wrote tracemalloc to get a reliable measure of the *Python* memory usage: https://docs.python.org/dev/library/tracemalloc.html#tracemalloc.get_traced_memory Run tests with -X tracemalloc -i, and then type in the REPL: >>> import tracemalloc; print("%.1f kB" % (tracemalloc.get_traced_memory()[1] / >>> 1024.)) 10197.7 kB I expect this value to be (much) lower than RSS.
