import sys
def foo():
x = [o] * 100
raise ArithmeticError
o = "something"
print sys.getrefcount(o)
try:
foo()
except ArithmeticError:
pass
print sys.getrefcount(o)

Gives:

Looking at the CPython source, FrameObject's deallocator does actually decrement refcounts of its locals and arguments. Guessing that the FrameObject is not being deallocated.

That's because in Python 2.5 at that point in the code sys.exc_info() still points at the traceback (and by extension, the frame) thus x is not deallocated yet. I don't think this is a bug. |

Alex is correct. (You can prove that by raising and catching another exception before the second getrefcount().) |
