<div>for python test, i used guppy and it told me there was no leak.</div><div>but couldn't find ways to to detect. because valgrind couldn't track child thread, memwatch doesn't understand free statements sometimes.</div>
<div><br></div><div>It was my best way that just checking the candidate source codes line by line.</div><div>specially embeded python and  python c-extension, there might be some missing in reference counting of object in c code.</div>
<div>please checkout following nice articles that explains the problem. </div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://edcjones.tripod.com/refcount.html">http://edcjones.tripod.com/refcount.html</a></div><div><br></div><div>hope you have lucky. ;)</div>
