Python by default builds the library `libpythonMAJOR.MINOR.a` and statically links it into the interpreter. Also it has an `--enable-shared`, (https://docs.python.org/3/using/configure.html#cmdoption-enable-shared) flag, which will build a shared library `libpythonMAJOR.MINOR.so.1.0`, and dynamically link it to the interpreter.
Are there any benefits of a shared build python, compared to a static build python? Is there any performance difference? I found a related question on SO and is it like he said ( https://stackoverflow.com/a/73035776/5983841), shared built vs statically built python only affects the "Embedding Python in Another Application" scenario ? -- Regards, Micky -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
