[New-bugs-announce] [issue16463] test_timeout failure on the RHEL buildbot

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou:

The RHEL buildbot consistently fails on test_timeout:



======================================================================
FAIL: testConnectTimeout (test.test_timeout.TCPTimeoutTestCase)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/buildbot/buildarea/3.x.coghlan-redhat/build/Lib/test/test_timeout.py", line 222, in testConnectTimeout
    self._sock_operation(1, 0.001, 'connect', self.addr_remote)
  File "/home/buildbot/buildarea/3.x.coghlan-redhat/build/Lib/test/test_timeout.py", line 126, in _sock_operation
    self.assertLess(delta, timeout + self.fuzz)
AssertionError: 5.0571630001068115 not less than 2.001


According to the build history, the failure appeared in http://buildbot.python.org/all/builders/x86%20RHEL%206%203.3/builds/133 , but the changes look unlikely to be related. Did the setup change?
