For now there is nothing impressive with it. The perfs they show off don't include data sharing, which is very primitive.

Which means there is nothing subinterpreters do that can't be done with multiprocessing.

They show progress, and it's good. But I would wait until we can see gunicorn spawning WSGI interpreters workers and get similar performances to the setup with regular workers to get enthusiastic.

to further your point: I've used the technique launching a separate python process for performance critical operations for years on different projects. I can run it in a completely different priority set as well.
