Comment(by jpflori):

 My point was that it seemed to me that there was some (not weak!)
 reference in the dictionary ZZ._action_hash pointing to the
 IntegerMulAction itself pointing to the curve and I thought it could
 prevent garbage collection.

 So I added a cpdef function to be able to clear that dictionary and see if
 garbage collection occurs once it is emptied, however it is a the C level
 so kind of the whole Sage library had to be rebuilt and I had to go back
 home before rebuilding was finished...

 Anyway, I'll have a look at it tomorrow :)

 By the way, have you any idea if dictionaries declared at the C level such
 as ZZ._action_hash are detected by objgraph ?
