I tried to create a DateRange in five minute steps.

In [40]: DateRange(datetime(2011,11,11), datetime(2011,11,12), offset=DateOffset(minute=5))

The %CPU is 100 and it consumes a lot of memory but nothing happens, no result and no error. I continued to experiment and realized that i wrote 'minute' instead of 'minutes'

In [41]: DateRange(datetime(2011,11,11), datetime(2011,11,12), offset=DateOffset(minutes=5))

My suggestion is to maybe add some kind of argument check.

Thanks for pointing this out. The problem is DateOffset takes as parameters anything that relativedelta from dateutil does. i think we should disallow this for 0.8

Should be easy to catch the infinite loop. I'll take a look
