-This directory contains test cases that are known to leak references.
-The idea is that you can import these modules while in the interpreter
-and call the leak function repeatedly.  This will only be helpful if
-the interpreter was built in debug mode.  If the total ref count
-doesn't increase, the bug has been fixed and the file should be removed
-from the repository.
-
-Note:  be careful to check for cyclic garbage.  Sometimes it may be helpful
-to define the leak function like:
-
-def leak():
-    def inner_leak():
-        # this is the function that leaks, but also creates cycles
-    inner_leak()
-    gc.collect() ; gc.collect() ; gc.collect()
-
-Here's an example interpreter session for test_gestalt which still leaks:
-
->>> from test.leakers.test_gestalt import leak
-[24275 refs]
->>> leak()
-[28936 refs]
->>> leak()
-[28938 refs]
->>> leak()
-[28940 refs]
->>> 
-
-Once the leak is fixed, the test case should be moved into an appropriate
-test (even if it was originally from the test suite).  This ensures the
-regression doesn't happen again.  And if it does, it should be easier
-to track down.
