Ned Deily <n...@python.org> added the comment: I'm not sure what to suggest other than taking a close look at and instrumenting that part of test_selectors. One thing you could try is seeing what the call to resource.getrlimit(resource.RLIMIT_NOFILE) is returning. You can also look at the values for your system's kernel by using the sysctl utility; see man sysctl. For example, on my system:
>>> resource.getrlimit(resource.RLIMIT_NOFILE) (7168, 9223372036854775807) $ sysctl kern.maxfilesperproc kern.maxfilesperproc: 36864 That may or may not be relevant. Long shot: are you running under an account that does not have administrator privs? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33036> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
