Re: Is python2 dead?
Hal Murray via devel : > Do you have any data on Go GC times? Yes. They're pretty miniscule. Most Go GC is performed concurrently with normal program execution, except for one stop-the-world phase that typically runs on the close order of 1ms for real production programs. https://medium.com/servicetitan-engineering/go-vs-c-part-2-garbage-collection-9384677f86f1 "Nearly all STW pauses in Go are really sub-millisecond ones. If you look more real-life test case (see e.g. this file), you’ll notice that 16GB static set on a ~ regular 16-core server implies your longest pause = 50ms (vs 5s for .NET), and 99.99% of pauses are shorter than 7ms (92ms for .NET)!" -- http://www.catb.org/~esr/;>Eric S.

Hal Murray : > Maybe it's time to switch to Go? I've thought about it. It shouldn't be all that difficuly.

I've learned by hard experience not to try to do a language translation and a rewrite at the same time, so this is a question I wouldn't want to broach while doing a lift. That said, I think the structure of pylib is basically sound. -- http://www.catb.org/~esr/;>Eric S. Raymond ___ devel mailing list devel@ntpsec.org https://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
