[New-bugs-announce] [issue27009] multiprocessing Connection data length limited to max(int32)

[Hartmann]

New submission from Hartmann:

I wonder if size restriction for the data blobs send via multiprocessing.Connection is intentionally. Otherwise it would be nice to get rid of that restriction.

File "python3.5/multiprocessing/connection.py", line 393, in _send_bytes
    header = struct.pack("!i", n)
