See echo-test.py. It connects to the local echo server (assuming it exists; it's supposed to simply echo all data) and starts two threads. One writes ~100 hellos per second, the other reads them as fast as possible and prints. When run with python this has the expected behavior:

jb@udev:~$ python echo-test.py 
hello
hello
hello
hello
hello
hello
...etc

With jython:

jb@udev:~$ jython echo-test.py 
hello
read timeout
hello
read timeout
hello
read timeout
...etc

The behavior seems to be that recv() blocks sendall(). When recv() times out, one sendall() completes and the next read reads the line, followed by another timeout.

send() / sendall() show same behavior

Note: this is on Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 amd64). On Mac OS X (10.9), the Jython behavior matches CPython.

Should be fixed in jython-socket-reboot branch, which will be merged into Jython trunk as part of beta 3

socket-reboot uses Netty 4 as its foundation; the underlying handlers do not having blocking between send/recv
