[issue38227] Setting a signal handler gets multiprocessing.Pool stuck

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

Several things here:

- you can perform critical cleanup with the atexit module; using a signal handler for that is extremely low-level and error-prone

- you can also try to switch to the "forkserver" method of multiprocessing, perhaps that will fix your issue
