New submission from mgogoulos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Not sure if this is a bug, however the following string functions when
called with very big numbers as the padding arguments consume great
system resources. My estimation is that it would help to exist a limit
on what can be specified as width.
Check (center, ljust, rjust, zfill)
eg.
import string
string.center('..', 2147483647)
Tested on python versions: 2.5.1 and 2.5.2
