[issue28165] The 'subprocess' module leaks roughly 4 KiB of memory per call

[Antti Haapala]

Antti Haapala added the comment:

3.5.1+ ubuntu; I run the Popen case in while True, and watch `top` - not a single digit changes in the memory usage (the last digit being the kilobytes). That the memory footprint increases *once* by 4KiB is nothing; please run this in a loop.
