Hi,
 
I have been using Python for .Net quite successfully to access an I/O library that allows me to perform some numerical calculations in Numpy. This library primarily requires the data to be fed back as Single Arrays. However when I perform many conversions from numpy arrays (or even just lists) to Single[] I am experiencing a memory leak that eventually causes a crash.
 
The following distills the problem. By switching between the two different Array types (Single & Double) the leak is controlled so it would seem there is some issues with Single. It does not appear to matter whether change the dtype of the numpy array to float32. I have also tried Array.ConvertAll but the same problem arrises.
 
 
import numpy as np
import clr
from System import Array, Single, Double
N = 100000
M = 1000
for i in range(N):
    # Numpy calculations
    A = np.random.random( M )
 
    # Convert to single array - creates memory leak
    sgl_arry = Array[Single](A)
 
    # Convert to double array - does NOT create memory leak
    #dbl_arry = Array[Double](A) 
 
    # call library requiring Single[]
    # ....
 
 
 
Any help would be appreciated.
 
Thanks,
James
