This would appear to be a bad default value for compiling. You can explicitly
disable compiling the code as optimized and it will be fully collectible:
var runtime = Python.CreateRuntime();
var engine = runtime.GetEngine("py");
var sum = 0.0;
PythonCompilerOptions pco = (PythonCompilerOptions)engine.GetCompilerOptions();
pco.Module &= ~ModuleOptions.Optimized;
while (true)
{
var code = engine.CreateScriptSourceFromString("1.0+2.0").Compile(pco);
sum += code.Execute<double>();
GC.Collect();
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
GC.Collect();
Console.WriteLine(sum);
}
I am inclined to change this, or at least add some other way that makes this
more discoverable (e.g. via the Python class). But I think changing the
default should probably wait until 2.1 as it could have some small perf
surprises for people who are expecting it to be in the more optimal form
(globals will be ~10% slower). Longer term we're working w/ the CLR team to
get the best of both worlds.

Please we need more vote on the memory leak issue because it has huge impact on
the usage of Iron Python for the web environment as well.

Hi Josh,
CompiledCode cc = src.Compile();
This will leak memory. So you will run out of memory after a while (in our case
after 100'000 compiles on x86).
[http://www.codeplex.com/IronPython/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=20399]
Is this going to work or will I run into threading problems? In other words,
is the ScriptEngine thread-safe? Will it serialize all of my cc.Execute()
calls? Any other insight into its behavior in this regard would be appreciated.
I think globals and imports will be shared. So modifying them might give
unexpected results.
Cheers,
Christian
