Severe crashes on dot completion

Issue

Lately, I noticed several crashes of vim (actually, even the whole terminal session). Finally, I found a situation where the problem was reproducible.

On pressing the last dot, vim blocks. Even more severe (not exact same situation but same behavior), lately vim crashed like that on a server and after logging back in I forgot to explicitly kill the old vim session, after some days I noticed my orphaned vim process in htop using 500 GB RAM.

Steps to reproduce

import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv('somefile.csv')

y = df['Stance'].<ui block>

It seems my fresh ubuntu install was affected by this seemingly random hang with 100% cpu load. I tried:

• compiling VIM from source with dynamic python bindings (does not fix issue)
• Installing older versions of jedi (v.0.9.0) and jedi-vim (80378d8) (does not help)
• checking out Jedi version v.0.9.0 (6655790) in .vim/bundle/jedi-vim/jedi (this seems to fix the problem)

These are my findings with very limited testing.

edit: To help start bisecting: jedi-vim submodule jedi commit ( 2ba78ab ) seems to be good.

One of the computers of the research group I am working for has indeed 1,5 TB RAM. It’s great.
