Hello,
I've written a PEP by which you can tell the GC to run in a dedicated thread. The goal is to solve reentrancy issues with finalizers: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0556/
Regards
Antoine.
PS: I did not come up with the idea for this PEP while other people were having nightmares. Any nightmares involved in this PEP are fictional, and any resemblance to actual nightmares is purely coincidental. No nightmares were harmed while writing this PEP.
