Python 2.6.4 (r264:75706, Dec 7 2009, 18:45:15) [GCC 4.4.1] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import regextest >>> len(regextest.makew()) 93455 >>> Compare to: Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Jul 7 2009, 23:51:51) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import regextest >>> len(regextest.makew()) 47672 >>> If I modify it to use 65535 (sys.maxunicode on OS X) and then run it on Linux, it completes quite quickly. ---------- nosy: +exarkun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8064> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
