gc — #Garbage#Collector interface
This module provides an interface to the #optional garbage collector. It provides the ability to disable the collector, tune the collection frequency, and set #debugging options. It also provides access to unreachable #objects that the collector found but cannot free. Since the collector supplements the reference counting already used in Python, you can disable the collector if you are sure your program does not create reference cycles.
