Hi Folks:
Next week, I am giving my talk to the Montreal Python User's group.
I would like to add a section on "What Makes Stackless Stackless." I guess
under the hood, part of the difference between CPython and Stackless Python is
the multiple stacks and Python data being stored on the heap rather than the C
stack.
I understand that the "Continuations with Stackless Python" talk is old. From
my recollection of previous discussions, continuations are not used. Rather
stack frames are moved around.
What I would like to know is whether there is still a dispatcher object? One of
my problems is that I don't have a good idea of how the CPython interpreter is
organised. If I have a Stackless Python distribution and a CPython
distribution, what files should I be looking at to get a rough idea of the
differences? I would be more than happy to send half a day looking at this.
Cheers,
Andrew
