1 year agoWhat’s wrong with Python’s multithreading? I’ve seen some other accounts that it’s not its strong suit. Is it because it leverages operating system level abstractions to make it happen or something else?
Interesting, so this means that it could be used for high performance computing if the GIL became optional?
