+"""Find the maximum recursion limit that prevents core dumps
+
+This script finds the maximum safe recursion limit on a particular
+platform.  If you need to change the recursion limit on your system,
+this script will tell you a safe upper bound.  To use the new limit,
+call sys.setrecursionlimit.
+
+This module implements several ways to create infinite recursion in
+Python.  Different implementations end up pushing different numbers of
+C stack frames, depending on how many calls through Python's abstract
+C API occur.
+
+After each round of tests, it prints a message
+Limit of NNNN is fine.
+
+It ends when Python causes a segmentation fault because the limit is
+too high.  On platforms like Mac and Windows, it should exit with a
+MemoryError.
+
+NB: A program that does not use __methods__ can set a higher limit.
