When calling gc.collect() after each test, I don't see any leak anymore.

doTest() has a small leak: it prepends a path to sys.path, but it never removes it.

Try attached leak2.py: it displays something like +254 kB. Uncomment the two following lines and the output will be close to +0 kB.

        #sys.path = old_path
    #gc.collect()
