Re:Python Language Summit: Python Without the GIL

Some programming tasks are so trivial that processing speed is completely uninteresting.
Some are so compute heavy that massive amounts of time is put into tuning them (sort algorithms, fast-fourier transforms, etc).
Most fall somewhere on the spectrum between those extremes. If you can speed up your program by a factor of 20 by adding threads, Python can cover a bit more of that in-between spectrum.
