New submission from Anselm Kruis: I installed Python 2.7.5 including tests using the MSI installer from http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.5/python-2.7.5.amd64.msi Running
python.exe -m test.regrtest -v test_list consumes all available memory and renders the my system completely unusable. I had to reboot. The problem is caused by the test case "test_overflow". If you run the test with an imposed memory limit, e.g. by using ulimitnt (http://code.google.com/p/ulimitnt/) , test_overflow passes. I propose to skip this test on Win64. ---------- components: Tests messages: 189491 nosy: anselm.kruis priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: test_list.test_overflow crashes Win64 type: resource usage versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18004> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
