.lsan-ignore.txt

+# .lsan-ignore.txt lists memory leak events that LeakSanitizer should not
+# report when running pygolang tests.
+#
+# Many python allocations, whose lifetime coincides with python interpreter
+# lifetime, and which are not explicitly freed on python shutdown, are
+# reported as leaks by default. Disable leak reporting for those to avoid
+# non-pygolang related printouts.
