Antoine Pitrou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:
(the fix is probably trivial, it involves dividing sys.maxsize by the number of
bytes of an unicode character, something like:
width = sys.getsizeof("a") - sys.getsizeof("")
alloc = lambda: u"a" * (sys.maxsize // width)
self.assertRaises(MemoryError, alloc)
self.assertRaises(MemoryError, alloc)
you can give it a try if you want ;-))
