[issue46449] Deep-freezed modules create inconsistency in sys.gettotalrefcount() (_Py_Reftotal)

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

Is there a way to disable deepfreeze when building Python?

It makes the Python build way slower. For example, a full build (after "make clean") of Python 3.10 takes 14.9 seconds on my laptop, whereas Python 3.11 takes 24.6 seconds (1.6x slower). It makes my workflow (trial-and-error based ;-)) less efficient.

Moreover, I would like to disable it to investigate why _Py_RefTotal is now negative at Python exit:

Note: I pushed many changes in bpo-46417 to clear static types and a few "static" objects at Python exit (in Py_Finalize()).
