<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hello,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I encountered difficulties when I tried to use the auparse module in Python 3.3. I would like to use this module with a modern version of the interpreter due to severe memory leaks in my auparse-based script that is run
in Python 2.6.6 (which is default for RHEL 6.4). The problem is described here: <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23369937/python-memory-consumption-on-linux-physical-and-virtual-memory-are-growing-whil">
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23369937/python-memory-consumption-on-linux-physical-and-virtual-memory-are-growing-whil</a>. Surely it can be my own fault (cyclic links preventing the gc work or something else), but some people from Stackoverflow community
advised me to use Python 3+ since it works with dynamic memory more properly. I would like to do it first.
