A full list of the various types of debugging builds is in the file :file:`Misc/SpecialBuilds.txt` in the Python source distribution. Builds are available that support tracing of reference counts, debugging the memory allocator, or low-level profiling of the main interpreter loop. Only the most frequently used builds will be described in the remainder of this section.
Compiling the interpreter with the :c:macro:`Py_DEBUG` macro defined produces what is generally meant by :ref:`a debug build of Python <debug-build>`. :c:macro:`Py_DEBUG` is enabled in the Unix build by adding :option:`--with-pydebug` to the :file:`./configure` command. It is also implied by the presence of the not-Python-specific :c:macro:`_DEBUG` macro. When :c:macro:`Py_DEBUG` is enabled in the Unix build, compiler optimization is disabled.
In addition to the reference count debugging described below, extra checks are performed, see :ref:`Python Debug Build <debug-build>`.
Defining :c:macro:`Py_TRACE_REFS` enables reference tracing (see the :option:`configure --with-trace-refs option <--with-trace-refs>`). When defined, a circular doubly linked list of active objects is maintained by adding two extra fields to every :c:type:`PyObject`. Total allocations are tracked as well. Upon exit, all existing references are printed. (In interactive mode this happens after every statement run by the interpreter.)
Please refer to :file:`Misc/SpecialBuilds.txt` in the Python source distribution for more detailed information.
