Physical, not really other than the tests, and I ran with -j0 (on a machine with 2 single core CPUs). I'm not sure what I think of the TEST_SLEEP/TEST_SHORT_SLEEP scheme, but I do like the idea behind support.check_time_delta. I've come up with a couple of alternative ideas (which may or may not actually be worth anything :) in the same vein as the TEST_SLEEP constants: 1) define a support.sleep function that multiplies the value given by some definable constant (default of 1) before passing the value to time.sleep. 2) define a support.sleep_until function, which would sleep for a given interval repeatedly until some condition is satisfied or a timeout is reached. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20910> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
