Hi, I observed a funny thing and I am just curious about it: As Eric being written in PyQt, in Python that is, it cannot actually use more than one processors due to Python GIL and all this story about it. But when I tried an operation that take some time to complete, I saw both processors in my dual core laptop being used!
I load Eric on Eric and do a "Code Metrics" operation. This indeed take some time to complete and in task manager there was activity on both processors. As far as I know, Eric does not use PP (Parallel Python) or the "processing" package so to distribute the load to multiple cores. Is this something to do with the calls to the C++ code of Qt (Qt may actually make better usage of the cores) ?? (I am using Windows Vista and latest Eric4 snapshot) _______________________________________________ Eric mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/eric
