It seems that on my Fedora 11 AMD X86_64, the problem still exists. In test_codecs.UTF32Test, test_handlers() seems to run forever, gobbling memory to 99+% and then activating swap until it fills up swap. tested by svn up -r 74869 rm /tmp/pynexttest .python -Ebb -Lib/tests/regrtest.py -vvs test_codecs disabling test_handlers() in UTF32Test allows the test to pass and it completes very fast. It is puzzling that UTF16Test test_handlers works with what looks like similar code in unidoceobject.c ~jim ---------- nosy: +jgsack _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6922> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
