[pypy-issue] [issue1683] BytesIO leaks like hell

[Armin Rigo]

Armin Rigo <armin.rigo at gmail.com> added the comment:

Bah, the leak appears to be StreamHolder from module/_io/interp_iobase.py:
running the tiny example with "gc.dump_rpy_heap()" at the end, the program ends
with one very large dictionary (likely "AutoFlusher.streams") and millions of
instances of "StreamHolder" and "weakref".
