Actually, I believe PyPy has a GIL as well (unless they've removed it recently).

- rbanffy 16y agoOops... May have gotten that one wrong, but the point stands. Even if Jython is the only GIL-free implementation of Python, you can run your thread-heavy code on it. There is no such thing as "You wouldn't be able to do [cool-multi-core-product] in Python because of the GIL"
- fuzzyman 16y agoIronPython is another GIL free Python implementation.
