The problem spot is my cache(dict). I simplified my code to just load 
all the objects to this dict and then clear it. After loading "top" 
was showing resident memory usage at 3.3Gb and immediately after that I
did self.__cache.clear() and memory reduced to 1Gb. Then I tried to find 
any references to this dict with no luck. Also I tried "del self.__cache". 
For debugging I use Pycharm
