Hi All,
Is there a python implementation that takes advantage of all cores on
modern multicore machines?
yes, Cpython if you used "multiprocessing". Ironpython and Jython
doesn't have GIL. Unladen Swallow plans to remove GIL.
Many minor python branch have been attempted to remove GIL, just as many
are rejected for merging back to the main trunk since they slow down
single threading. You might be able to find these patches from the
internet and download the appropriate python source, patch them, and get
python minus GIL.
