<p>Thank you for your answer but I updated MPL to 2.1.0 and the memory leak is still there. Also, I skipped entirely pyplot and the result is strictly the same. </p>

<div>The stackoverflow posting notes that mpl v1.1.1 was used, which is 5 years old. I am pretty sure we have made a lot of memory leak fixes since then. I noted as such on SO.<br>

<div dir="ltr">It is likely there things are not being garbage collected due to either a missed reference surviving or the circular references between the various objects is delaying gc from collecting them (I do not recall the details exactly off the top of
my head, but running gc manually with more generations may help).

<div>However, if you are embedding in a GUI you are probably better off just doing the embedding directly (and skipping `pyplot` entirely, see <a href="https://matplotlib.org/examples/user_interfaces/embedding_in_tk.html" target="_blank">https://matplotlib.org/exa<wbr>mples/user_interfaces/embeddin<wbr>g_in_tk.html</a> ).
Re-using the Figures / Axes / Artists to update the data (rather than starting from scratch every time) may also prevent the memory leaks _and_ give you a performance boost.<br>
