Stefan Krah added the comment: I've seen the failure very often, without any particular load.
Now I noticed that during test_tools there were several ksoftirqd processes consuming 20% CPU on 4 cores. That seemed unusual to me, so I followed the advice of a certain MIT koan and rebooted. test_multiprocessing_fork no longer fails. ---------- resolution: -> works for me status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19432> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
