Answer 1

Google "Muppy Python"

Answer 2

Yes it is possible.
If its a complex program that involves numerous functions called, events and loops which could potentially create cyclic references and sometimes it could be an incompatible external library. Take note of the versions.
Troubleshooting memory leaks is also possible but mostly hectic, especially when trying to identify and isolate leaking objects.
Lucky enough there are some tools developed by individuals (geniuses) that can help with making the process less hectic.
😅Though it doesnt get any smoother remapping the code to fix the leaks
