I think you'd need an increase of an order of magnitude or two (possibly more) in some cases to make this work: notice that the failure message from the itimer_virtual test gives an indication of how much virtual time *has* actually passed, and in some cases it's none at all (to within the timer resolution). Also, this doesn't seem like a very future-proof solution. Reducing the time intervals (0.2, 0.3, ...) probably isn't much of an option either: I'd expect difficulties with timer resolution. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8424> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
