Message27650
When a big mail (>10MB) is fetched MemoryError may
result (reproduced in Windows XP/2003, Python 2.41):
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "t5.py", line 9, in ?
data = f.read(26872159)
File "c:\python24\lib\socket.py", line 307, in read
data = self._sock.recv(recv_size)
MemoryError
The problem is not actually in imaplib (though it
requests the whole mail in one read), but probably in
combination of socket core code and the implementation
of read() function (he way it buffers the received data
in a list?). I can easily reproduce the problem e.g
with these snippets:
------------CLIENT----------------->
import socket
import time
s = socket.socket()
s.connect(("127.0.0.1", 8037))
f = s.makefile("r", 200000)
while 1:
data = f.read(26872159) # Using smaller value here
helps, 100000 seems to work forever...
#data = s.recv(26872159) # THIS WORKS OK
print len(data)
---------SERVER--------------------->
import SocketServer
import time
PORT = 8037
time.sleep(0.2)
s = "X" * 1823
class
TimeRequestHandler(SocketServer.StreamRequestHandler):
def handle(self):
for x in range(200000):
self.wfile.write(s)
print x
server = SocketServer.TCPServer(("", PORT),
TimeRequestHandler)
print "listening on port", PORT
server.serve_forever()
