            Bug ID: 16236
           Summary: add $_memoize function
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: python
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: tromey at redhat dot com

Right now gdb will create a new object in the inferior
on each use.  However, many times this isn't needed.
It would be handy sometimes to have a $_memoize convenience
function that forces its argument to memory just once,
and then for subsequent calls simply returns the same object.
