Hi!
I got a problem with self generated objects and reference counting.
Function test1 leaks memory and in test2 I fixed that, but it's ugly. Can
this be done easier? I use this in my own file like class and this is the
most efficent way I found. I can send I the full class on request. Or you
can look in python/Objects/fileobject.c in the file_read function. I
closely follow it.
Regards,

cdef extern from "Python.h":
ctypedef extern struct PyObject
PyObject *PyString_FromStringAndSize(char *v, int len)
void Py_DECREF(PyObject *)
def test1():
cdef PyObject *rv
rv = PyString_FromStringAndSize(NULL, 200000)
return <object>rv
def test2():
cdef PyObject *rv
cdef object dummy
rv = PyString_FromStringAndSize(NULL, 200000)
dummy = <object>rv
Py_DECREF(<PyObject *>dummy)
return dummy
