What's new in Tornado 5.0.1 =========================== Apr 7, 2018 ----------- Bug fixes ~~~~~~~~~ - Fixed a memory leak when `.IOLoop` objects are created and destroyed. - If `.AsyncTestCase.get_new_ioloop` returns a reference to a preexisting event loop (typically when it has been overridden to return `.IOLoop.current()`), the test's ``tearDown`` method will not close this loop. - Fixed a confusing error message when the synchronous `.HTTPClient` fails to initialize because an event loop is already running. - `.PeriodicCallback` no longer executes twice in a row due to backwards clock adjustments.
