With limited memory it was fast:
$ ulimit -d 50000 -m 80000 -s 10000 -v 100000
$ python
Python 2.7.9 (default, Mar 1 2015, 18:22:53)
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> L = [None]
>>> L.extend(iter(L))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
MemoryError
Memory control groups don't help because they don't limit virtual
memory so the process simply starts thrashing.
