Issue #18144 has been reported by duerst (Martin Dst). ---------------------------------------- Bug #18144: Timeout not working while regular expression match is running https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18144 * Author: duerst (Martin Dst) * Status: Third Party's Issue * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: various, see description * Backport: 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Experimenting with dozens of regular expressions that take a long time to match against certain strings, I have found that for some regular expression matches, Timeouts don't work at all (while they work for the rest without problems). The attached file allows reproduction. On three different machines and with six different versions of Ruby (see below), the attached file always showed about 20~25 seconds of execution time even though there was a Timeout interval of only 10s. If your machine is too fast so that the printed-out result comes in below or just a bit above 10s, then either lower the timeout duration (e.g. to 5s) or increase the length of the string (e.g. 80_000 -> 100_000; caution, time increases with the second power of this number). The timeout uses `Timeout::timeout` and `rescue Timeout::Error` as described in the pickaxe.
