Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment:
A workaround in the implementation of multiprocessing.SharedMemory is IMHO acceptable, tweaking os.ftruncate less so. Note that a Python script can already cause problems on systems by using APIs as intended (such as using shutil.rmtree on the user's home directory). There's balance between compensating for platform deviancies and having clean and performant implementation. BTW. We should file an issue with Apple about this. I'll do so when I've had time to crash a test VM using the C code you provided. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39584> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
