[pypy-issue] [issue1142] Maximum recursion depth exceeded VS Stack overflow

[Armin Rigo]

Armin Rigo <armin.rigo at gmail.com> added the comment:

Bah, CPython might raise randomly MemoryError or RuntimeError when the stack is
full.  PyPy consistently raises RuntimeError.  I'm sure there are cases where
users expect and catch MemoryError, and other cases where they expect and catch
RuntimeError, making it a mess to support...
