How can I put this without being an ass? Hell, I'm no good at diplomacy - the gzip module blows chunks - if I can shell out to a standard unix util and it uses a tiny fraction of the memory to do the same job the module is inherently broken no matter how pretty it's code looks. You can of course tell me to STFU - but look around the web I won't be the first or last user to bemoan "import gzip"... :) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7471> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
