@ -80,15 +80,15 @@ This module defines the following functions:
Return the thread stack size used when creating new threads. The optional
*size* argument specifies the stack size to be used for subsequently created
threads, and must be 0 (use platform or configured default) or a positive
integer value of at least 32,768 (32kB). If changing the thread stack size is
integer value of at least 32,768 (32 KiB). If changing the thread stack size is
unsupported, a :exc:`RuntimeError` is raised. If the specified stack size is
invalid, a :exc:`ValueError` is raised and the stack size is unmodified. 32kB
invalid, a :exc:`ValueError` is raised and the stack size is unmodified. 32 KiB
is currently the minimum supported stack size value to guarantee sufficient
stack space for the interpreter itself. Note that some platforms may have
particular restrictions on values for the stack size, such as requiring a
minimum stack size > 32kB or requiring allocation in multiples of the system
minimum stack size > 32 KiB or requiring allocation in multiples of the system
memory page size - platform documentation should be referred to for more
information (4kB pages are common; using multiples of 4096 for the stack size is
information (4 KiB pages are common; using multiples of 4096 for the stack size is
the suggested approach in the absence of more specific information).
Availability: Windows, systems with POSIX threads.
