[issue26415] Out of memory, trying to parse a 35MB dict

[A. Skrobov]

New submission from A. Skrobov:

I have a one-line module that assigns a tuple->int dictionary:

holo_table = {(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 41, 61, 66, 89): 9, (0, 0, 0, 70, 88, 98, 103, 131, 147, 119, 93): 4, [35MB skipped], (932, 643, 499, 286, 326, 338, 279, 200, 280, 262, 115): 5}

When I try to import this module, Python grinds 100% of my CPU for like half an hour, then ultimately crashes with a MemoryError.

How much memory does it need to parse 35MB of data, of a rather simple structure?

Attaching the module, zipped to 10MB.
