[issue16381] Introduce option to force the interpreter to exit upon MemoryErrors

[Christian Theune]

Christian Theune added the comment:

I pondered PyErr_NoMemory as well. However, I noticed not all locations in Python use PyErr_NoMemory to raise a MemoryError, and I'm also afraid that external libraries will have the same problem.

Can you explain why you consider PyErr_NoMemory to be the better option? (I can think of performance but I wouldn't want to trade it in against reliability.)
