Basically Python applications are usually not too CPU-intensive; there are some ways you can get parallelism with reasonable extra effort; and for most of Python's history, multi-CPU systems have been rather exotic so the GIL didn't create too big a problem. Right now it is starting to become more of a problem than before, but it's not yet intolerable. Obviously something will have to be done about it in the long run, maybe with PyPy. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
