[pypy-issue] [issue1608] Memory leak when accessing a dictionary with an non-existent key

[Armin Rigo]

It's probably not hard to have the final error show up as "MemoryError: cannot
convert dictionary from UnicodeDictStrategy to ObjectDictStrategy".  Would such
a message be helpful in your opinion?  Should we also try to have a similar
message on list strategies?  These are two places I can think of where CPython
never needs a lot of memory to complete, but where PyPy might.
