Thank you so much Python core developers and steering council. Python is one of my favourite languages along with Java and C.

I greatly welcome true multithreading in Python.

I use both multiprocessing and multithreading in Python for different projects. See [0] for my multiprocessing example and python Threads for IO heavy tasks in [1]. But it would be far more efficient to use true threads.

Threads can communicate any amount of data in a single atomic almost instant operation. Using the local loopback interface or multiprocessing or pipes, this is not possible.

I am working on a multithreading architecture I call three tier multithreading architecture

My goal is extremely scalable and performant servers but Python is probably the wrong job for that.
