Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: Peter, this looks like a different problem; please could you open a new issue?
When/if you do, please could you also report: - what version of Python you're using - your system details (what OS? 32-bit or 64-bit?) If you can give us a better idea of what's in your 86Mb file, that would also help: perhaps post the first few and last few lines. What's in this list? Integers? Floats? Strings? It's not totally implausible that Python really *does* need gigabytes of memory to process a list in an 86Mb file. ---------- nosy: +mark.dickinson _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7899> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
