Will testing an array of chars do? You can easily allocate 4-5Gb on a regular 64bit pc, even with only 1G of ram, given that your swap space is sufficient. If you want to excercise your array, then you might get some paging, but it's not completely impossible.

Since I do not have a machine with so much memory: Does one of the buildbots allow to run tests for this feature, or do I have to wait for the snakebite farm? -- Thanks, Thomas _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev at python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/kristjan%40ccpgames.com
