I haven't been able to reproduce the crash by running the test on a tmpfs on my own machine (Ubuntu AMD64; 8GB RAM; Linux 3.0.0-15-generic; zlib 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3ubuntu3), but maybe it's due to something specific about the configuration of the buildbot machine? I've temporarily changed the test to use a regular chunk of memory instead of the mmap hack). If possible, I'd like to change back to the old technique in the long run (since it allows the test to run on machines with less RAM), but until we can figure out the problem, I'd rather not have the test failing needlessly. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13873> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
