Hello, I just filed https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6972
The issue I'm facing is a deadlocked Python on OS X when a lot of processes are spawned. In the repro script we do this very aggressively to trigger the deadlock quickly, but the actual program that does this "ticks" every minute.
There is a possibility that this is either a Python bug or an OS X issue as the same program used to run fine in 10.5 and after some upgrades to 10.7 this issue appeared. We worked around it by using 2.6 but now we need 2.7.
I know this is going to be difficult for people to reproduce, so I wonder if someone can help me investigate the issue further. I found this https://dev.launchpad.net/Debugging/GDB but it doesn't work - I believe, without being able to confirm, that the issue is that GDB can't really work with clang-built executables? Or perhaps I don't have the debugging symbols.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Orestis _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
