You probably only need to call "wait" once. That blocks the thread until it gets a result, so it is more CPU-efficient than calling "poll" in a busy loop. Since you open a separate pipe for "stderr" in script.py, but don't do anything with it, there could be a deadlock with the child writing to the stderr pipe versus the parent reading from "stdout" or waiting for the exit status. I guess your script is an approximation of the "sos" application. I don't have time to understand everything it is trying to do, but I added some comments at <https://github.com/sosreport/sos/commit/2fcf5f0#r30410300>. ---------- resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34566> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
