Interesting results!<div><br></div><div>Another data point for the benchmarks that would be interesting is memory consumption of the python process during the runs.</div><div><br></div><div>In 3.3 a reasonable place to gather this would be to add a callback to the new gc.callbacks and save a snapshot of the process's memory usage before every collection to gather peak, average and median usage over the life of the process. 2.7 doesn't have this feature but there is a backport of this to 2.7 in the bugtracker.</div>
