New issue 2858: In some cases, the GIL is not released often enough https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/2858/in-some-cases-the-gil-is-not-released
Armin Rigo: The GIL is implemented with optimizations that try to not release it during a burst of very short C calls. But in some cases these optimizations are too eager and cause the GIL to remain in the same thread, seemingly for up to 20ms. See attached demo. _______________________________________________ pypy-issue mailing list pypy-issue@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-issue
