[docs] [issue17468] Generator memory leak

[Benjamin Peterson]

Benjamin Peterson added the comment:

In a sense, doing something like "with self.lock" in a generator is already a leak. Even if there wasn't a cycle, collection could be arbitrarily delayed (in partincular on non-CPython VMs). I wonder if making generators context managers which call close() on exit would help.
