Ned Deily added the comment:
Sorry, the documentation for sys.setrecursionlimit() explicitly warns you
against doing this:
"The highest possible limit is platform-dependent. A user may need to set the
limit higher when she has a program that requires deep recursion and a platform
that support
New submission from pablo sacristan:
The code is very simple:
import sys
sys.setrecursionlimit(1<<20)
test=lambda test:test(test)
test(test)
It basically works by changing the recursion limit and then starting an
infinite recursion, this quickly gives a segfault.
This can be used to crash pytho
