How can I use objgraph to detect memory leaks in my Python application?

You can use objgraph to visualize object references and track down memory leaks by identifying objects that are not being freed.

What are the steps to install objgraph?

You can install objgraph using pip: pip install objgraph. Make sure you have Python and pip installed.

Can you show me a simple example of using objgraph?

Sure! First, create some objects, then use objgraph.show_growth() to see which objects are increasing in number over time.

What should I look for in the output?

Look for unexpected growth in object counts, which indicates potential memory leaks. Focus on objects that shouldn't persist.
