[issue19432] test_multiprocessing_fork failures

[Richard Oudkerk]

Richard Oudkerk added the comment:

This is a test of threading.Barrier rather than anything implemented directly by multiprocessing.

Tests which involve timeouts tend to be a bit flaky.  Increasing the length of timeouts usually helps, but makes the tests take even longer.

How often have you seen this failure?  Did it happen on a buildbot?  Was there a lot of other activity on the system at the time?
