FYI: Simon's patch doesn't make any difference for the amount of
memory used for


sage: while p<2^20:
....:     p=next_prime(p)
....:     g=FindGroupOrder(p,11)
....:

In both cases about 2046MB more were used after the loop :(. Simon:
Run

    init_mem=get_memory_usage()

before you do anything, run the computation and then once you are done
run

   get_memory_usage()-init_mem

and compare the different to before the patch. I assume Alex's script
he attached to the ticket does something similar.

It might be a good idea to create some constant at the very end of
all.py that sets the initial amount of memory used so it is trivially
invokable because once you have hit a leak it is too late anyway :(

Not that the patch will fix some other issues, but the picture seems
to be more complex. I am sure we will get to the bottom of it :).

Cheers,

Michael
