Completely disable IPython output caching

Question

I\'m dealing with some GB-sized numpy arrays in IPython. When I delete them, I definitely want them gone, in order to recover the memory. IPythons output cache is quite annoying

Answer 1

Looking at IPython/core/displayhook.py Line 209-214 I would say that it is not configurable. You could try making a PR to add an option to disable it totally.
