Python 2.7 - Spynner - High RAM Usage Upon Page Refresh

I ran into the trouble when I made Page Refresh script.

Here's the code:

import spynner
browser = spynner.Browser()

When I type

browser.load("http://stackoverflow.com")

..a few times, the script eats very much RAM.

I tried:

browser = spynner.Browser()
browser.load("http://stackoverflow.com")
browser.close()

but it does not help, in other words, the eaten RAM was still the same.

So my question would be how I could load any page many times without getting my RAM to be eaten up.

Thanks in advance!

Solution

  • Please try using Ghost.py. Form what I've seen while using it myself, it is a resource-light, fast headless Python browser.
