Looks good to me, and properly skips the large file test on my Linux box. A second iteration may be useful to provide separate options for different resources (cpu/disk/ram), but it's not clearly needed at this time. Accepted as-is. |

This was accepted ages agon -- what are you waiting for? |

Fred, can you test this on a Linux with > 2Gb files (needs the --have-resources switch; read Trent's comment), or pass it on to someone who can? I can't do more than stare at this, and nothing in my staring hit my eye. Well, Guido may hate the long option name (--have-resources), especially given that even with all those letters <wink>, it's not really self-describing. |

Fred, do something with this or assign it to some other Unix geek? |

This patch adds a test for largefiles (creating, seeking, telling, etc.). The test skips if there is no largefile support. There is one further problem. The test basically involves creating a file greater than 2GB and playing with it. On UN*X systems with sparse files this is no problem. On Win64 (which I have heard *can* do sparse files, but not in Python yet), however, >2GB space and a *long* time is required to run the test. I don't think it is reasonable to turn this on by default... so here is what I did. I extended regrtest.py to accept the --have-resources switch. This sets test_support.use_large_resources, which is checked in test_largefile.py. By default 'use_large_resources' is false. On Win64, then, by default the largefile test is skipped but can be run via the --have-resources switch to regrtest.py or by running the test directly. This seems to me the Right Thing. The affected files are: Lib/test/regrtest.py Lib/test/test_support.py Lib/test/test_largefile.py (new) Lib/test/output/test_largefile (new) |

Sorry about the delay. Had to make some small changes to get the old patch to apply. |
