Hi Gelin,
As I know there are two epoll implementations in twisted, one that from twisted itself and another one comes from standard library since py 2.6.
I was slightly incorrect in my email: the combination where it happens infrequently is actually Twisted 10.2 with python 2.7.3 (not Twisted 10.1 as I wrote). How can I check whether twisted is using Pythons epoll or its own in this combination? And how can I switch between epoll implementations in my app?

Hi Gelin, I don't have anything extra to add about the status of those two tickets (I think you meant #6373 rather than #6378, by the way) - which is exactly why I'm replying. Twisted development doesn't take place in secret. The issue tracker should always reflect the latest state of the development process. If an issue has had no comments and a branch no commits for a couple months, then it's almost certainly because no one has worked on the issue for a couple months. So you generally don't need to ask if there has been any progress, because progress will always be reflected in ticket history or in version control. trunk. If this happens, then the fix will be available in the next release of Twisted, 13.1.0, which will probably happen in just a few weeks.

If I restart the server, it will be stable for a couple of weeks, until some event triggers this problem again. We hope that this problem is fixed before we are really forced to migrate to newer Python, otherwise there's no real upgrade path for us using Twisted.

Hi All
Hi Gelin,
I don't have anything extra to add about the status of those two tickets (I think you meant #6373 rather than #6378, by the way) - which is exactly why I'm replying.
Twisted development doesn't take place in secret. The issue tracker should always reflect the latest state of the development process. If an issue has had no comments and a branch no commits for a couple months, then it's almost certainly because no one has worked on the issue for a couple months.
I am quite concerned about these two tickets due to recently I may port one of my systems to Ubuntu. Perhaps you can help out with the tickets, then! As hopefully you've noticed, one of them is currently up for review. This means a developer believes a fix for the problem has been created and is just waiting for someone else to look it over and agree that it should be applied to
So you generally don't need to ask if there has been any progress, because progress will always be reflected in ticket history or in version control. trunk. If this happens, then the fix will be available in the next release of Twisted, 13.1.0, which will probably happen in just a few weeks.
For more details about how the review process works, please take a look at this wiki page:

By reading these comments, It looks like recent version of twisted may suffer from this problem. So what version of twisted should I use? Do I need to keep using 10.1?
I always use the latest version on windows.

Hi exarkun
I noticed "review" tag has been removed for a while so does it imply this ticket is still pending?
I am not quite familiar how epoll works on linux so my help probably can be neglected. I event can't sure how to reproduce this bug.
By the way, Is it possible to use the "old" epoll implementation instead of the built in epoll from python with the latest version? It looks like this old one works quite well. Thanks

Hi Alec
Thanks for your info. As I know there are two epoll implementations in twisted, one that from twisted itself and another one comes from standard library since py 2.6. If I was correct, since 10.2, twisted has been used the standard epoll if applicable. I am curious which one did you use? Have you tried py 2.7 & epoll from twisted itself?

Hi Alec
there is a link: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/browser/tags/releases/twisted-13.0.0/twi sted/internet/epollreactor.py
I strip the related part and paste here:
try: from select import epoll except ImportError: from twisted.python import _epoll
in the latest trunk there is only from select import epoll.
I am not sure which one you are using. epoll has been available in standard library since Py 2.6. Twisted has been used its own epoll wrapper for years until recently.

Hi Alec I suggest giving the work around provided by Itamar a try. It might alleviate your situation. Regards gelin yan
