Lukas Lueg added the comment: In any strategy only a heuristic could be used in order to decide wether or not it's safe to raise MemoryError. How exactly is memory pressure expected for x=[2]*200 but not for x=2*200 ?
I don't think a new function could ultimatly achieve it's goal. If MemoryError occurs, all bets are off. Shutting down as fast as possible is the best we could do, if requested. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16381> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
