You're welcome. I pushed my patch adding PYTHONMALLOC environment variable: https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.6.html#pythonmalloc-environment-variable Please test PYTHONMALLOC=debug and PYTHONMALLOC=malloc with your favorite application. I also adjusted code (like code handling PYTHONMALLOCSTATS env var) to be able to use debug checks in all cases. For example, debug hooks are now also installed by default when Python is configured in debug mode without pymalloc support.
