Hi Pablo, I'm only surprised that the maximum size generated in the test is always lower than the PY_SSIZE_T_MAX. And this appears both on AIX and on Linux, which both compute the same values. On AIX, it appears (I've just discovered this now) that malloc() does not ALWAYS check that there is enough memory to allocate before starting to claim memory (and thus paging space). This appears when Data Segment size is unlimited. On Linux/Fedora, I had no limit too. But it behaves differently and malloc() always checks that the size is correct. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41540> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
