[python-win32] Memory Consumption when running Python COM Script

I have investigated this further and found that python appears to
compile the Value call for each loop iteration (dynamic.py, row 300).
The compiled python objects are somehow kept during the lifetime of
the script. Is this correct?

Is is possible to use early binding (with the code generated from
makepy) in a self-hosted python script?

Thanks
