Not quite like that. It is more like (web2py specific): "Do not declare classes with a __del__ method in web2py models or controllers or instances of those classes will cause memory leaks"
AND (for any python program) "Do not declare classes with a __del__ method in any Python program unless you are sure there are no circular references" Circular references are very easy to create accidentally in Python.
