Unset() != free() is the bummer in the CLI env. :-( Def could use that to help shape the performance contour in a daemon env since the "request" never ends unless you self-terminate. Even then it can be tricky to get that lifetime right if your loads change, etc. -- AD > "leak", which honestly surprised me.
