Public bug reported:

There are many locations throughout the code-base that make use of
MagicMocks to capture and prevent external calls. However, several of
them never have assertions made on them so the fact that they record all
of the calls made to them is a waste of memory. This is especially true
for long-lived ones that span many tests and may record hundreds of
calls (e.g. RPC notifier mocks).
