This is interesting, if I do a loop of "remove blah; install blah;" then on RHEL-5 I lose about 13 MB for each op. (26MB for each pass of the loop).
On F-13 I lose maybe a couple of 100k.

David I remember you saying something about a leak you'd found out about at pycon ... could this be it?
FYI to the RHN guys, RHEL-5 doesn't leak if I do the "normal" YumBase() create/del test ... how hard would it be to create a new YumBase() for each install set?
