Out of memory issue with dialog box

[numan.salati@gmail.com]

Hi,

We have a mutilthreaded process in which one of the threads uses too
much memory causing the process to run out of memory. However when
this happens we see a dialog box pop up with the message "fatal error
in GC : too many heap sections." When you click "ok" only then does
the process die.

Is there a way for the process to crash directly without going through
the dialog box.

Any help would be appreciated?

That message comes from the Boehm garbage collection library; Python does
not use it. Check any compiled extension in use.
