By the way, here's a more reliable way to make it crash (on my Linux
machine):
import bz2, threading
bz2c = bz2.BZ2Compressor()
# Span at least a whole arena (256KB long)
junk_len = 512 * 1024
junk = b"a" * junk_len
buf = bytearray()
for x in range(50):
buf[:] = junk
t = threading.Thread(target=bz2c.compress, args=[buf])
t.start()
buf[:] = b""
t.join()
