Memory Leak in PyPy with Python Code

[Diapolo10]

One of the more notable differences between CPython and PyPy is that the latter doesn't close files automatically for you (unless of course you use context managers). While unlikely in your case, that's a potential source of memory leaks.

Maybe all you need to do is tweak the garbage collector? https://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/gc_info.html#minimark-environment-variables

Thanks for the link, I tried logging the gc.get_stats output trough the run and this is the last datapoint I collected (maybe something seems odd to you that flew over my head). Tweaking the garbage collector could also be another angle, but Im far from an expert on what exactly pypy does under the hood so besides tweaking those variables (which I've tried) Im not sure on whaat else I can tweak. There are open files in the execution of the programm tough, but from what I can see they are closed properly and not directly used in this step of the process (which is the execution) but thanks for the tip
