New submission from Davide Rizzo <sor...@gmail.com>:
munmap() can take a long time. I think mmap_object_dealloc can trivially release the GIL around this operation. Something similar was already mentioned in https://bugs.python.org/issue1572968 but a general patch was never provided. The dealloc case alone is significant enough to deserve fixing. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 336775 nosy: davide.rizzo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: release GIL on mmap dealloc versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36139> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
