GC! If you're allocating lots of objects and holding on to them, GC
will run frequently, but won't find anything to free. Maybe you want to
turn off GC, at least some of the time? See the GC module, esp.
set_threshold().
Note that the cyclic GC is only really a sort of safety net for
reference loops, as normally objects are free'd when their last
reference is lost.
