Hi,
as an user, the "lua use case" is right what I need at work.
I realize that for python this is a niche case, and most users don't
need any of this, but I hope it will useful to understand why having
multiple independent interpreters in a single process can be an
essential feature.

By definition, the use of any third-party module (or even the standard

Hi,
I agree that embedding Python is an important use case and that we
should try to leak less memory and better isolate multiple
interpreters for this use case.
There are multiple projects to enhance code to make it work better
with multiple interpreters:
