Also reproduced on 64-bit Win10 with just-released 3.9.0. Note that string search tries to incorporate a number of tricks (pieces of Boyer-Moore, Sunday, etc) to speed searches. The "skip tables" here are probably computing a 0 by mistake. The file here contains only 2 distinct byte values, and the relatively huge string to search for has only 1, so there's plenty of opportunity for those tricks to get confused ;-) ---------- nosy: +tim.peters _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41972> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
