[issue32026] Memory leaks in Python on Windows

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower <steve.dower at python.org> added the comment:

Not sure how much we can do about this, but you may want to try with Python 3.7. Eric and Nick have been working on streamlining startup, which includes a lot of work (thanks Eric!) to remove static variables.

Don't expect a fix in Python 3.6 for this, and don't be surprised if Eric/Nick closes this and references whichever bug they're using to track the other work, but it is something that we're aware of and are (slowly) working to address.
