I found a similar issue with a db.py module with code like this in it...
from gluon.packages.dal.pydal import DAL, Field
db = DAL("sqlite://storage.sqlite")
db.define_table(
"test",
Field("myid", default=DEFAULT_VALUE, length=15),
Field("name", default=DEFAULT_VALUE, length=15),
Field("code", default=DEFAULT_VALUE, length=2),
)
every time the application was accessed the memory grew a little bit as if
these objects were never garbage collected after the http response was
sent. Is my assumption that this should be garbage collected incorrect?
If I let it run long enough I did run out of memory so it was never
cleaned up.
I am relatively new to web2py, I feel I must be missing something obvious
or this would be reported often.
