Microsoft is funding the work with Mark Shannon / GVR / Eric Snow. The project is called "Faster Cpython". Pretty excited for the 3.12 work, where they plan to introduce JIT compilation I believe? I'm not sure about the progress on the new form of GIL removal, but as far as I've seen it's a separate effort. https://github.com/faster-cpython/ https://github.com/faster-cpython/ https://www.theregister.com/2021/05/13/guido_van_rossum_cpython_3_11/ https://www.theregister.com/2021/05/13/guido_van_rossum_cpyt...

> Pretty excited for the 3.12 work, where they plan to introduce JIT compilation I believe? "A JIT, according to Shannon, will probably not arrive until 3.13 at the earliest, given the amount of lower-hanging fruit that is still to be worked on. The first step towards a JIT, he explained, would be to implement a trace interpreter, which would allow for better testing of concepts and lay the groundwork for future changes." https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2022/05/the-2022-python-language-summit_2.html https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2022/05/the-2022-python-languag...
