Segfault during schema parsing

Comienza con los frames de la pila reportados en graphql/language/ast.py y graphql/language/parser.py; después, inspecciona gql/client.py, donde comienza el análisis del esquema. Reproduce el análisis de una cadena de esquema grande con faulthandler y compara el comportamiento del parser y del AST. Se considera terminado cuando se identifica una causa reproducible y se documenta o se prueba el fix.

Hey there,

The package is great and has been super reliable for us so far. However, we're running into an intermittent issue where the python exits with code 139 (segfault).

The relevant part of the stack trace, obtained with Python's builtin faulthandler:

main Fatal Python error: Segmentation fault

• This happens when trying to parse a GraphQL schema as a string, loaded from a network request.
• The schema is around 2800 lines, which I presume is considered fairly large.
• The entry point is through the gql library, but the issue seems to be inside graphql-core
• I couldn't find what could go wrong based on some digging through the stack trace.
• The package version we're using is 3.2.3.

Could this be a mislabeled OOM error? I don't think so, but worth considering. Is there anything I could do to profile this better? It's a bit hard as it's running inside a Kubernetes pod and we can't reproduce locally, but I can try.
