New submission from Dustin Boswell:
Here's a command-line that parses a json string containing a large array of
short strings:
python -c "import simplejson as json; json.loads('[' + '''\"asdfadf\", ''' *
1 + '\"asd
Dustin Boswell added the comment:
Here's a slightly smaller/cleaner test case that only requires 12GB of ram to
run:
python -c "import simplejson as json; json.loads('[' + '''\"...\", ''' *
2 + '0]') "
Dustin Boswell added the comment:
I thought simplejson was a standard module for 2.6, and got renamed to json
(replacing the older json module) in later versions.
For instance, I get the same problem with 2.7 (no simplejson):
python2.7 -c "import json; json.

Yes, bug exists on 3.1 (gcc build), as well as darwin build of 2.7:
python3.1 -c "import json; json.loads('[%22s' % ']')"
