Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Lukas Lalinsky (luks) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: release GIL while doing I/O operations in the mmap module Initial Comment: There is a few system I/O calls in the mmap module that can take some time. Would be be possible to put Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS/Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS around these to release the GIL and allow other Python threads to do their work? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Josiah Carlson (josiahcarlson) Date: 2006-10-16 15:12 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=341410 Can you come up with the listing of code blocks where it would make sense to allow threads, or even provide a patch? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=355470&aid=1572968&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
