Memory usage

[xro7]

As i noticed there is no trivial way to free memory allocated in RAM after creating a TextPreProcessor object. I tried remove object reference with: preprocessor = None or del preprocessor but it does not seem to work. Is there something i am missing?

The library uses memoization. You can either shrink the maxsize, or call python's garbage collector manually.

import gc

# ekphrasis preproccessing...

gc.collect()
