Médéric Boquien added the comment: "the process will get killed when first writing to the page in case of memory pressure."
According to the documentation, the returned shared array is zeroed. https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/multiprocessing.html#module-multiprocessing.sharedctypes In that case because the entire array is written at allocation, the process is expected to get killed if allocating more memory than available. Unless I am misunderstanding something, which is entirely possible. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21116> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
