Chris McDonough <chr...@plope.com> added the comment: Hi Graham,
The intent here is to only unwind generators because they may be calling start_response() as a side effect of the first iteration. While other iterables might do that, I think they can lose, because this case is fairly uncommon, and the only side effect of not doing it is that profiling data is skewed. Unwinding all iterables would mean running out of RAM when you unwound an app_iter that happened to serve up e.g. a big file, which I think would be worse than providing skewed profile data. Thoughts? ---------- status: unread -> chatting __________________________________ Repoze Bugs <b...@bugs.repoze.org> <http://bugs.repoze.org/issue179> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Repoze-dev mailing list Repoze-dev@lists.repoze.org http://lists.repoze.org/listinfo/repoze-dev
