If I execute:

The python process gobbles up all the memory and is killed. The
problem is that after this my swap is completely used, because other
processes have swapped to it. This make those programs more slowly. Is
there a way to circumvent Python claiming all the memory?
By the way: this is CPython 2.7.8.
On what OS? If I try something similar on Win-8.1
and CPython 2.7.5 (32-bit):
python -c "for i in range(int(1E9)): pass"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
