I did, forgot to mention that. Culprit is self._thread.join(). Which is where it waits for the internal thread to terminate, which I would've expected to wait on a lock or semaphore (pthread_join()?) So there's something I'm totally missing here, which has more to do with queues and threads in general than it has with logging. Any ideas? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
