Mark Dickinson added the comment: > I suggest to close it as WONTFIX. Agreed. If you use sys.setrecursionlimit, you're deliberately bypassing Python's safety mechanisms. A crash due to stack overflow shouldn't be considered a bug under these circumstances. -- nosy: +mark.dickinson _

STINNER Victor added the comment: I don't think that we can fix this issue. I suggest to close it as WONTFIX. > sys.setrecursionlimit(3000) While Python does its best to catch stack overflow, the C implementation of CPython can exhaust the stack memory (8 MB in Linux?) and then crash with a

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: The RESTART line means that you ran this in IDLE and that your program crashed the separate (sub)process that was running your code. When IDLE notices this, it starts a new subprocess. To test whether this is an IDLE-only problem, I ran your code without IDL
