Hi,
Wyplay is proud to announce the release of a new tool to track Python
memory allocations: "pytracemalloc".
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytracemalloc
https://github.com/wyplay/pytracemalloc
pytracemalloc provides the following information:
- Allocated size and number of allocations per file,
or optionally per file and line number
- Compute the average size of memory allocations
- Compute delta between two "snapshots"
- Get the source of a memory allocation: filename and line number
It helps to track memory leaks: show directly in which Python files
the memory increases.
Example of pytracemalloc output (compact):
2013-02-28 23:40:18: Top 5 allocations per file
#1: .../Lib/test/regrtest.py: 3998 KB
#2: .../Lib/unittest/case.py: 2343 KB
#3: .../ctypes/test/__init__.py: 513 KB
#4: .../Lib/encodings/__init__.py: 525 KB
#5: .../Lib/compiler/transformer.py: 438 KB
other: 32119 KB
Total allocated size: 39939 KB
Example of pytracemalloc output (full):
2013-03-04 01:01:55: Top 10 allocations per file and line
#1: .../2.7/Lib/linecache.py:128: size=408 KiB (+408 KiB),

#2: .../unittest/test/__init__.py:14: size=401 KiB (+401 KiB),

#3: .../2.7/Lib/doctest.py:506: size=319 KiB (+319 KiB), count=197
(+197), average=1 KiB
#4: .../Lib/test/regrtest.py:918: size=429 KiB (+301 KiB),

count=1149 (+1149), average=69 B
#8: .../Lib/test/test_types.py:7: size=75 KiB (+75 KiB),
count=1644 (+1644), average=46 B
#9: .../2.7/Lib/doctest.py:99: size=64 KiB (+64 KiB), count=1000
(+1000), average=66 B
#10: .../Lib/test/test_exceptions.py:6: size=56 KiB (+56 KiB),
count=932 (+932), average=61 B
3023 more: size=1580 KiB (+1138 KiB), count=12635 (+7801), average=128 B
Total: size=3682 KiB (+3086 KiB), count=36987 (+29908), average=101 B
To install pytracemalloc, you need to patch and recompile your own
version of Python to be able to hook all Python memory allocations.
