原标题:Python中打开文件<128KB的内存泄漏?
原始问题
运行 Python 脚本时,我发现我认为是内存泄漏。这是我的脚本:
import sys
import time
class MyObj(object):
def __init__(self, filename):
with open(filename) as f:
self.att = f.read()
def myfunc(filename):
mylist = [MyObj(filename) for x in xrange(100)]
len(mylist)
return []
def main():
filename = sys.argv[1]
myfunc(filename)
time.sleep(3600)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
main 函数调用myfunc()
它创建一个包含 100 个对象的列表,每个对象打开并读取一个文件。从返回后myfunc()
,我希望从 100 项列表和读取文件中释放内存,因为它们不再被引用。但是,当我使用该ps
命令检查内存使用情况时,Python 进程使用的内存比从注释掉第 12 行和第 13 行的脚本运行的 Python 进程多出约 10,000 KB。
奇怪的是,内存泄漏(如果是这样的话)似乎只发生在小于 128KB 的文件中。我创建了一个 bash 脚本来运行这个脚本,文件大小从 1KB 到 200KB 不等,当文件大小达到 128KB 时,内存增加停止。这是 bash 脚本:
#!/bin/bash
echo "PID RSS S TTY TIME COMMAND" > output.txt
for i in `seq 1 200`;
do
python debug_memory.py "data/stuff_${i}K.txt" &
pid=$!
sleep 0.1
ps -e -O rss | grep $pid | grep -v grep >> output.txt
kill $pid
done
这是 bash 脚本的输出:
PID RSS S TTY TIME COMMAND

有人可以解释发生了什么吗?为什么使用 <128KB 的文件时内存使用量会增加?
我的完整测试环境位于此处: https ://github.com/saltycrane/debugging-python-memory-usage/tree/50f73358c7a84a504333ce9c4071b0f3537bbc0f
我在 Ubuntu 12.04 上运行 Python 2.7.3。
更新 1
此问题并非特定于处理大小小于 128K 的文件。将对象属性设置为与从文件中读取的大小相同的值,我得到了相同的结果。这是更新的代码:
import sys
import time
class MyObj(object):
def __init__(self, size_kb):
self.att = ' ' * int(size_kb) * 1024
def myfunc(size_kb):
mylist = [MyObj(size_kb) for x in xrange(100)]
len(mylist)
return []
def main():
size_kb = sys.argv[1]
myfunc(size_kb)
time.sleep(3600)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
运行此脚本会产生类似的结果。更新的测试环境位于此处: https ://github.com/saltycrane/debugging-python-memory-usage/tree/59b7ff61134dfc11c4195e9201b2c1728ed4fcce
更新 2
我通过以下方式进一步简化了我的测试脚本: 1. 删除类并简单地创建字符串列表 2. 删除myfunc()
并使用del
删除mylist
对象
import sys
import time
def main():
size_kb = sys.argv[1]
mylist = []
for x in xrange(100):
mystr = ' ' * int(size_kb) * 1024
mylist.append(mystr)
del mylist
time.sleep(3600)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
我的简化脚本也给出了与原始脚本相似的结果。但是,如果我不创建单独的字符串变量,我看不到内存增加。这是不会增加内存的脚本:
import sys
import time
def main():
size_kb = sys.argv[1]
mylist = []
for x in xrange(100):
mylist.append(' ' * int(size_kb) * 1024)
del mylist
time.sleep(3600)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
更新后的测试环境位于: https ://github.com/saltycrane/debugging-python-memory-usage/tree/423ca6a50dccbe32572a9d0dea1068ddcb06663b
更多问题:
- 其他人可以重现我的结果吗?
- 内存的增加是否符合

预期?
关于正在发生的事情的提示
我发现了一些关于“免费列表”的有趣信息,它们似乎与这个问题有关:
从最后一个链接:
为了加快内存分配(和重用),Python 使用了许多用于小对象的列表。每个列表将包含类似大小的对象
确实:如果一个项目(大小为 x)被释放(由于缺少引用而被释放),它的位置不会返回到 Python 的全局内存池(甚至更少返回到系统),而只是标记为空闲并添加到大小为 x 的物品。
如果小对象内存从未被释放,那么不可避免的结论是,就像金鱼一样,这些小对象列表只会不断增长,不会缩小,并且您的应用程序的内存占用由在任何给定情况下分配的最大数量的小对象所支配观点。
更新 3
我在更新 2 中过度简化了代码。del mystr
在脚本末尾添加该行释放了内存。(见:https ://github.com/saltycrane/debugging-python-memory-usage/blob/dd058e4774802cae7cbfca520fb835ea46b645e8/debug_memory_leaks.py )
我将脚本更新为足够复杂来演示该问题。以下代码中仍然存在该问题。最新的代码/环境位于此处:https ://github.com/saltycrane/debugging-python-memory-usage/tree/fc0c8ce9ba621cb86b6abb93adf1b297a7c0230b
import gc
import sys
import time
def main():
size_kb = sys.argv[1]
mylist = []
for x in xrange(100):
mystr = ' ' * int(size_kb) * 1024
mydict = {'mykey': mystr}
mylist.append(mydict)
del mystr
del mydict
del mylist
gc.collect()
time.sleep(3600)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
我也跑了一些其他环境的脚本。奇怪的结果是从一个干净的 virtualenv 中运行的。在这种情况下,内存下降发生在 260KB 而不是 128KB。见https://github.com/saltycrane/debugging-python-memory-usage/tree/52fbd5d57ff45affdcd70623ddb74fa1f1ffbbc2
环境:
- Ubuntu 12.04 64 位,系统 Python 2.7.3:原始运行
- Ubuntu 12.04 64 位,Python 3.3.0 从源代码编译:类似的结果
- Scientific Linux 6 64 位,Python 2.6.6:类似的结果
- Ubuntu 12.04 64 位,来自 virtualenv 的 Python 2.7.3:内存下降发生在 260KB 而不是 128KB

在阅读了其中的一些内容后,我看到了对 256KB 的“竞技场大小”的引用。也许这有关系?
更新 4(大部分已解决)
schlenk 发现了内存使用量下降到 128KB 的原因。128KB 是“内存分配函数”(malloc?)使用 mmap 而不是使用 sbrk 增加程序中断的点。有趣的是,可以通过环境变量更改阈值。我运行了一个测试,将MALLOC_MMAP_THRESHOLD_
环境变量设置为不同的值,并且内存使用量的下降与该值相匹配。有关结果,请参见此处:
https ://github.com/saltycrane/debugging-python-memory-usage/blob/97d93cd165a139a6b6f96720de63a92561dd2f05/output_debug_memory_leaks.py.txt
我仍然想知道它是否期望我的脚本的行为会泄漏字符串值 < 128KB 的内存。
还有几个链接:
- mallopt(3) - Linux 手册页(来自 schlenk)
- Python内存管理与TCMalloc | 推动网络
- 回复:将 x 设置为 None 并且 del x 不会在 python 2.7.1 (HPUX 11.23, ia64) « python-list « ActiveState List Archives 中释放内存
- 问题 3526:SunOS 和 AIX 上的自定义 malloc 实现 - Python 跟踪器
- 使malloc中的mmap/brk阈值动态提高性能
注意:根据最后两个链接,使用 mmap 而不是 sbrk 会影响性能(速度)。
