I suppose you are talking about IronPython, because there is no way you could "compile" CPython, if yes, Mono can be integrated with IronPython: http://www.mono-project.com/Python

This is apparently true for VS2012 + Win7, at least from my tests. On a quad-core machine the max numbers of threads spawned by std::async is 10.

Obviously you will write faster code if you use directly OS functions, but your code will be less portable.

std::async is included in the C++11 standard. The number of threads that async will use is implementation dependent, I bet on Windows with VS2012 you will see a different number of threads. You could force async to run asynchronously or in

Actually it makes sense, if you manually force the code to use only 4 threads it will take more time to finish that in the case when you let the compiler split the work for you. On a given machine there are hundreds of threads running concu

You are right about the Pyhton's C API. However I've found that I can use any C (or C++ 2003) library through the cppyy branch.

The stable PyPy version is provided as a binary. In principle you will need to compile this from sources only if you have special needs. Have a look here (binaries for Mac, Linux and Windows): http://pypy.org/download.html#default-with-a-j
