Has anyone considered that this may be part of the issue? If he is
stepping through a range this is not just X if statements but n * x
where n is the number of loops. Possibly some variables that are not
getting freed between loops? (my guess would be that it is related to
logging) Anyways, no expert here, just wanted to point that out.
