I agree with the theory. However, we have only a single BSD box
currently working and it has been flaky. Primarily test_smtplib has
been failing sporadically on it. For example:
test test_smtplib failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/usr/home/db3l/buildarea/trunk.bolen-freebsd/build/Lib/test/test_smtplib.py",
line 375, in testBasic
smtp = smtplib.SMTP(HOST, PORT, local_hostname='localhost', timeout=3)
File "/usr/home/db3l/buildarea/trunk.bolen-freebsd/build/Lib/smtplib.py",
line 237, in __init__
(code, msg) = self.connect(host, port)
File "/usr/home/db3l/buildarea/trunk.bolen-freebsd/build/Lib/smtplib.py",
line 294, in connect
(code, msg) = self.getreply()
File "/usr/home/db3l/buildarea/trunk.bolen-freebsd/build/Lib/smtplib.py",
line 335, in getreply
line = self.file.readline()
File "/usr/home/db3l/buildarea/trunk.bolen-freebsd/build/Lib/socket.py",
line 369, in readline
data = self._sock.recv(self._rbufsize)
timeout: timed out
Ugh. I just looked at the test and see all the sleeps. I'll speed
this test up by using events which will also hopefully reduce the
flakiness. It currently takes 28 seconds. That should be decreased
significantly.
