I believe that the libc and the kernel knows better than Python how to restart a syscalls, than Python. I expect more reliable timeout, or the kernel may avoid context switches (don't wake up the process). In practice, you should not see any difference. Or maybe only on some corner cases. But do you want to handle these corner cases while there is already a portable flag for them? :-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19850> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
