See the recent discussion at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29005573 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29005573 - it seems to be coming and there's ongoing work to start merging a solution to GIL in the work-for-3.11 branch. They do say "Don’t expect Python 3.11 to drop the GIL just yet", but it seems likely that either 3.11 or 3.12 will have a GIL-less option that you can enable if you don't rely on any C extensions that need extra work to become concurrency-safe.
