Environment

  • Pythonnet version: 2.4 master
  • Python version: 3.7
  • Operating System: Win10 x64

Details

  • Describe what you were trying to get done.

    Hello, we are using PythonNet to execute custom python scripts in our C# application. We pass a set of large .net objects (such as DataTable with a big bunch of data) as a script locals. When we execute such sctripts multiple times we got an OutOfMemoryException

  • What commands did you run to trigger this issue? If you can provide a
    Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example
    this will help us understand the issue.

    public void Execute(string script, IDictionary<string, object> locals, List<string> searchPaths)
        {
            var modifiedScript = $"{script}{Environment.NewLine}{string.Format(PythonSnippets.SystemEventHandler, pySystemHandlerGuid)}";

            _scriptLocals = new PyDict();

            using (Py.GIL())
            {
                if (locals != null)
                    foreach (var local in locals)
                        _scriptLocals[local.Key] = local.Value.ToPython();

                _pythonScope = Py.CreateScope();
                _pythonScope.Exec(modifiedScript, _scriptLocals);
            }
        }

Here we cache PyScope and PyDict. Pydict contains our large .net objects, translated to Python

    public void ClearCache()
        {
            using (Py.GIL())
            {
                _pythonScope.Exec($"vars().clear()");

                foreach (PyObject pObject in _scriptLocals.Items())
                {
                    pObject.Dispose();
                }

                dynamic gc = Py.Import("gc");
                gc.collect();

                _scriptLocals.Dispose();

                _pythonScope.Dispose();

                gc.collect();
            }
        }

This method we execute each time, after we finished our work with script. As you can see, I tried different way to clean up resources, but memory leak still occures, after multiple executions.
I did a snapshot of memory with .net profiler, and found that there a references to my DataTables from the CLRObject and I did not find a way how to release it.
