I believe you are failing to understand Phyo's answer: PyPy 2.3.1 had
some internal memory leaks that were fixed later.  If you're running
into these, there is nothing you can do but upgrade to a more recent
PyPy.  There are no Python-level tricks that can free this leaked
memory.


A bientôt,

Armin.
