> - perl6 is the first mainstream(ish) dynamic language to not suffer from a GIL of some kind. GILs are features of implementations, not languages; Ruby has implementations (most notably JRuby) without a GIL. And Clojure doesn't have a GIL, and seems to be approaching mainstream. And Perl 6 isn't mainstream yet (it hopes to be, but then so do most languages.) And there's plenty of not-currently-mainstream dynamic languages without GILs in their primary implementations; many in the Lisp/Scheme family. |
