The software they created converts Python commands into machine code executed directly in the computer's memory. This new computer language is dubbed PyPIM (Python Processing-in-Memory).

While processor speeds and memory storage capacities have surged in recent decades, overall computer performance remains constrained by data transfers, where the CPU must retrieve and process data ...

Python’s development team chose defaults that reflect the most common real-world scenarios. But if you do need to tweak the way garbage collection works, you can use Python’s gc module.

The research team’s paper offers a solution to this problem. The new software platform introduces a set of commands that has become a bridge between in-memory computing and conventional programming ...

There are plenty of memory profilers for Python and plenty for C and C++, but up to this point, there hasn’t been a memory profiler that can work with both Python and C/C++ simultaneously, says ...
