Guido van Rossum added the comment: I'm not sure. Running out of file descriptors is really not something a library can handle on its own -- this needs to be kicked back to the app to handle. E.g. by pacing itself, or closing some connections, or changing the system limit... The library really can't know what to do, and just waiting until the condition magically clears seems asking for mysterious hangs.
