[zeromq-dev] Memory accumulation of Python-based PUB/SUB

[Yanone]

Hi everyone,

I’m implementing a long-running PUB/SUB server using 0mq. It’s accumulating a lot of memory over time (as users connect) and doesn’t release it after disconnection.

Is there a best-practice around this? The server is running in Python/Flask and is very simple, see here: https://github.com/typeworld/messagequeue-docker/blob/main/pub.py

Has anyone tried Python’s `gc` module (garbage collection) to any success?

Thank you
Jan
