[issue34172] multiprocessing.Pool and ThreadPool leak resources after being deleted

tzickel <icebreak(a)yahoo.com> added the comment: I think I've found the code bug causing the leak: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/caa331d492acc67d8f4edd16542cebfabbbe… There is a circular reference between the Pool object, and the self._worker_handler Thread object (and it's also saved in the frame locals for the thread object, which prevents it from being garbage collected). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34172> _______________________________________

tzickel <icebreak(a)yahoo.com> added the comment: What other object in the standard lib, leaks resources when deleted in CPython ? Even that documentation says the garbage collector will eventually destroy it, just like here... I think there is an implementation bug. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34172> _______________________________________

[issue34115] code.InteractiveConsole.interact() closes stdin
by Terry J. Reedy 21 Jul '18

21 Jul '18

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy(a)udel.edu> added the comment: There is an important difference between a program saying 'I am done executing' and a user saying 'I am done with the interactive session'. This is especially true in an IDE where 'session' can include many editing and shell sessions. 'Stop executing' happens when execution reaches the end of the file, which causes EOFError upon a read attempt. It can also be done gracefully before the end of input with sys.exit(), which raises SystemExit. In Interactive Python, 'leave session' can be done with SystemExit or the EOF control signal, which appears to raise EOFError. This suggests that quit() and exit(), which were added because newbies did not know the proper way to exit, should raise EOFError rather than SystemExit. The fact that 'quit' displays 'Use quit() or Ctrl-Z plus Return to exit' (EOF on Windows) suggests the same. But I need to experiment (another day). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34115> _______________________________________
