* Revert "bpo-31356: Add context manager to temporarily disable GC GH-5495Yury Selivanov2018-02-021-28/+0
| | | | | | | This reverts commit 72a0d218dcc94a3cc409a9ef32dfcd5a7bbcb43c. The reverted commit had a few issues so it was unanimously decided to undo it. See the bpo issue for details.

* bpo-31558: Add gc.freeze() (#3705)brainfvck2017-10-161-0/+27
| | | | | Freeze all the objects tracked by gc - move them to a permanent generation and ignore all the future collections. This can be used before a POSIX fork() call to make the gc copy-on-write friendly or to speed up collection.

* whatsnew for gc.get_stats, plus doc tweaks.R David Murray2013-12-261-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Clarified the "At the moment" wording, and added the get_stats entry in the module summary that Serhiy noted was missing at the end of issue 16351. Given that pydoc lists all the function docstrings, I'm not sure that module summary section is actually needed; but, it is probably better to address that when the module is converted to use Argument Clinic. In the meantime we should keep the list complete.
