[Python-Dev] Reworking the GIL (original) (raw)

I built something very similar for my company last year, and it’s been running flawlessly in production at a few customer sites since, with avg. CPU usage ~50% around the clock. I even posted about it on the Python mailing list [1] where there was almost no resonance at that time. I never posted code, though -- nobody seemed to be too interested.

I've never bothered to make this tidy and nice, especially the function naming (PySpecial_*) leaves some things to be desired. It's not too bad, though; it just doesn't have commit-ready quality. I don't worry about this anymore, so I just post what I have. Maybe someone can make use of it. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
