Overview
The Flyweight pattern is a memory optimization pattern. Novice Python programmers tend to ignore memory optimization, assuming the built-in garbage collector will take care of it. Relying on built-in memory management is the best way to start. In some cases, for example, very large data science applications, memory constraints can become barriers, and more active measures need to be taken. In very small Internet of Things devices, memory management can ...
