Summary: bsddb3 hash craps out with threads
Initial Comment:
Richie Hindle presented something like the attached
(hammer.py) on the spambayes-dev mailing list. On
Win98SE and Win2K w/ Python 2.3c1 I usually see this
death pretty quickly:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "hammer.py", line 36, in ?
main()
File "hammer.py", line 33, in main
hammer(db)
File "hammer.py", line 15, in hammer
x = db[str(int(random.random() * 100000))]
File "C:\CODE\PYTHON\lib\bsddb\__init__.py", line 86,
in __getitem__
return self.db[key]
bsddb._db.DBRunRecoveryError: (-30982,
'DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database
recovery -- fatal region error detected; run recovery')
Richie also reported "illegal operation" crashes on
Win98SE.
It's not clear whether a bsddb3 hash *can* be used
with threads like this. If it can't, there's a doc bug. If it
should be able to, there's a more serious problem. Note
that it looks like hashopen() always merges DB_THREAD
into the flags, so the absence of specifying DB_THREAD
probably isn't the problem.

Minor correction: I'm on Plain Old Win98, not SE.
For what it's worth, the script seems more often than not
to provoke an application error when there's background
load, and a DBRunRecoveryError when there isn't.
