Could you show evidences that dropping the GIL can help you? bytes.join() needs to perform operations which needs to hold the GIL (allocating the memory, iterating the list, getting the data of bytes-like objects). I afraid that the cost of memcpy() is a minor part of this. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36051> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
