You notice a script is taking more memory than expected even after finishing its tasks. You suspect some objects aren't being garbage collected. How can you explicitly attempt to clean them up?
- clear_memory()
- del objects
- gc.collect()
- mem_cleanup(objects)
To explicitly attempt to clean up objects and free memory, you can use gc.collect(). This function is part of Python's gc (garbage collection) module and triggers the garbage collection process, which reclaims memory occupied by unreachable objects.
