Usually, it does. I have seen database adapter packages (an old "psycopg" version, to be precise) that forgot to release the GIL for some operations. Then Zope freezes while these operations are executed. A surprising report of a similar kind was: while Zope's embedded profiler is in use, Zope effectively runs in single thread mode (such that other threads do not distort the timing results). Probably not your problem ... but who knows. Further potential reasons (for almost surely not responsible for your current problem: Expensive operations implemented in "C" (such as operations on huge strings) Creating excessive amounts of objects (causing lots of generation 2 garbage collections which hold the GIL) -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - [email protected] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
