New submission from William Edwards: If you have 1024 file descriptors already open, the file descriptors created internally in multiprocessing.Queue will be beyond 1024 and the select() call buried deep in the Queue will throw an exception.
In fact, all uses of select() in the Python libs should be use poll() where available instead, obviously. ---------- components: IO messages: 173208 nosy: William.Edwards priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: multiprocessing.Queue uses select() type: behavior versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16269> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
