RE: [cx-oracle-users] assistance in analyzing memory usage?

[Hancock, D. \(DHANCOCK\) <DHA...@ar...>]

Sorry to say I haven't got any solution to offer, but just a question: =
How does your memsnap() function work? I just hacked something like it =
to help us with other memory leak problems, but I'd like to see another =
implementation, because it's sure to be better than mine (mine saves =
sys.argv[0] to a string, and does a "ps auxww | grep 'that string' | =
grep -v grep"

Thanks, and
Cheers!

I'm seeing a memory leak when running this program which just
loops over a table and fetches its data.

Is there something I should be doing after a fetchmany to
free up some memory?

Attached below are some cleaned up output and the test program.
The "job" table has quite a few fields, including clob's.  Should
I be doing something special with them?

Many TIA!!
Mark
