STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: I did some tests: os.write(1, b'X'*length) does always fail with length >= 63842. It does sometimes fail with length > 35000. The maximum looks completly random: as written in Microsoft documentation, "The maximum size of the buffer will depend on heap usage"...
32000 looks arbitrary. I would prefer 2^15-1 (32767) because it looks less magical :-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11395> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
