Memory leak with Python scripts?

[svntax]

I noticed that the objects count you can see in Monitors always increases if you do the following:

• Have a node with a Python script attached.
• Move your mouse or type on your keyboard.

While mouse/keyboard input happens, the objects count increases, but when I stop, the objects count also stops increasing. It doesn't happen with GDScript, only with Python. And it happens whether the node is a Node, Control, Node2D, or Node3D.

I tested this issue in a brand new 4.3 project with py4godot 1.0.0-alpha4 and a single node with the default Python script. I'm not sure if it's py4godot causing this, or a more general GDExtension issue?

Hey,
Thank you for pointing out the issue. It’s very likely my mistake. You have to be careful to clean everything up when working with GDExtension. I may not be properly cleaning up the arguments passed to py4godot when events are raised. I'll look into it.
