Re: Problem with copy.deepcopy and multiprocessing.Queue

Seems I found the cause. os._exit() is used in ForkingMixIn for SocketServer and it’s child classes. Since os._exit() doesn’t flush buffers or clean anything up (hence not running the Finalize hooks that multiprocess.Queue use to make sure data gets flushed), this breaks multiprocess.Queue.
