Waits longer than say 50 ms would call WaitForSingleObjectEx() or Sleep() with the wait time minus 50, and then busy loop until the deadline. So time.sleep(1) would wait the thread for 95% of the interval. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44681> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
