[Zope-dev] Zope 2.4.4b1 dumps core

Hi,

As I mentioned in this list before, I'm also getting the segfaults in a
Zope that depends heavily on PythonScripts.

The only C compiled Product that is used is ZMySQLDA with the last
versions of everything I could find, and I doesn't seem to be the cause
of the problem, since disabling gc fixes the problem (just like it fixed
with 2.4.3) but causes a leak that requires us to restart the ZEO Client
(which is what is segfaulting. The ZEO server runs without a glitch)
every 6AM.

I have a feeling that it's crashing less frequently than Zope 2.4.3, but
I cannot confirm this. It's crashing every 20m aproximately, when gc is
enabled.

I have run out of options as well. We must keep the server under
surveillance at all times because sometimes the morning restart isn't
enough to contain the leak before the machine starts swapping.

Cheers, Leo

Ideas don't stay in some minds very long because they don't like
solitary confinement.
