Logged In: YES user_id=31435 Hmm. I suspect the flush docs() are too strong (does flush really promise to materialize bytes on disk? it doesn't for other Python file objects, you also need os.fsync() for that). Your point is well taken, though, and whatever flush() does normally do, it's not going to do it for a copy-on-write mmap. So fine by me if we declare that attempting to flush() a copy- on-write mmap raises an exception.

Hmm. I suspect the flush docs() are too strong (does flush 
really promise to materialize bytes *on disk*? it doesn't for 
other Python file objects, you also need os.fsync() for that).
