I would strongly recommend that “best values” includes “run Python
version >= 3”.

One of the many problems you avoid by leaving Python 2 behind is that
many functions which used to return entire collections, now return lazy
evaluators (such as generators or views) which will not consume memory
the way you're describing.

Please try to learn Python using only the currently-developed Python 3.
