PSF photometry hangs, may be bug

Open Vb2341 opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

BasicPSFPhotometry has issues running on large numbers of stars (11000), which is expected, due to the large amount of fitting that has to be done. However, the length of time doesn't seem consistent, sometimes it executes in a few minutes, and sometimes it hangs for 20+ minutes. There might be a memory issue, or something else, but it might be worth investigating.

I guess that this is the same as https://github.com/astropy/astropy/issues/8338, which is fixed by https://github.com/astropy/astropy/pull/8349
