Amaury Forgeot d'Arc added the comment: PyPy also has a "C-translated" version of the io module. It's a bit faster I think, but more importantly it has correct behavior with signals and other asynchronous errors.
_pyio.py can be stopped in the middle of any function, and is not completely signal-safe. ---------- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19973> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
