We need more information. Is this 64-bit AIX? How much physical memory does the machine have? Linux also has over-allocation and the default for ulimit is unlimited. But it does not attempt to over-allocate such an outrageous amount of memory. Neither do FreeBSD, Windows, etc. ---------- nosy: +skrah _______________________________________ 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
