I also don't know exactly when this happens. For example, the following
can be interrupted:

> Do you mean to say that Python won't be able to catch the interrupt in
the former case, but not in the latter case (i.e. the latter loop will
keep running)?
I mean that the loop in the last case will keep running because Python
doesn't check for interrupts when executing `x = ["foo"] * 100`.
