  • Proposed Improvements to Module Cleanup

    ...function or class. A function object contains a reference to the function's 'globals' object, which is the __dict__ of the module that defines it. Since the __dict__ normally has a reference to the function there's a cycle that needs to be broken, or else the __dict__ would never be garbage collected. Note that a reference-count based solution doesn't work within one module, since references between functions are by name, not by value -- two mutually recursive functions can still bot...

By the way, here's the timing function that I used. it calls a function f n*10 times with argument a, and prints the function name followed by the time it took, rounded to milliseconds. The 10 repeated calls are done to minimize the loop overhead of the timing function itself. You could go even further and make 100 calls... Also note that the expression range(n) is calculated outside the timing brackets - another trick to minimize the overhead caused by the timing ...
