Quoting Benjamin Peterson <benjamin at python.org>:
If you know that your application uses a lot of memory, it is interesting to sometimes (when the application is idle) try to release some bytes to not use all the system memory. On embedded devices, memory is expensive and very limited. Each byte is important :-) How many embedded systems are running Python?
And of those, how many use the linecache module?
Regards, Martin
