> Those people/use-cases don't care about the GIL. This is not true. The primary funding and motivation for the GIL removal work comes from the numerical computing community. The PEP (https://peps.python.org/pep-0703/) contains direct quotes from folks working on numpy, scipy, PyTorch, scikit-learn, etc. and also practitioners from places like Meta, DeepMind and so on, describing the practical constraints that the GIL places on many workloads. |
