Bug reports should be submitted via the Python Bug Tracker
Move the 3k reST doc tree in place.
2007-08-15 11:28:22 -03:00
(http://bugs.python.org/). The bug tracker offers a Web form which allows
pertinent information to be entered and submitted to the developers.
The first step in filing a report is to determine whether the problem has
already been reported. The advantage in doing so, aside from saving the
developers time, is that you learn what has been done to fix it; it may be that
the problem has already been fixed for the next release, or additional
information is needed (in which case you are welcome to provide it if you can!).
To do this, search the bug database using the search box on the top of the page.

If the problem you're reporting is not already in the bug tracker, go back to
the Python Bug Tracker. If you don't already have a tracker account, select the
"Register" link in the sidebar and undergo the registration procedure.
Otherwise, if you're not logged in, enter your credentials and select "Login".
It is not possible to submit a bug report anonymously.
Being now logged in, you can submit a bug. Select the "Create New" link in the
sidebar to open the bug reporting form.
The submission form has a number of fields. For the "Title" field, enter a
*very* short description of the problem; less than ten words is good. In the
"Type" field, select the type of your problem; also select the "Component" and
"Versions" to which the bug relates.

A long description of the two competing problems is in the bug report (one old, one recently introduced trying to fix the old one). In short: buffer data during socket._fileobject.read() and readlines() within a cStringIO object instead of a [] of str()s returned from the recv() call. This prevents excessive memory use due to the size parameter being passed to recv() being grossly larger than the actual size of the data returned *and* prevents excessive cpu usage due to looping in python calling recv() with a very tiny size value if min() is used as the previous memory-use bug "fix" did. It also documents what the socket._fileobject._rbufsize member is actually used for. This is a candidate for back porting to 2.5. ................ r62636 | mark.hammond | 2008-05-02 14:48:15 +0200 (Fri, 02 May 2008) | 2 lines #2581: Vista UAC/elevation support for bdist_wininst ................ r62638 | facundo.batista | 2008-05-02 19:39:00 +0200 (Fri, 02 May 2008) | 3 lines Fixed some test structures.
