Ok, votes are still tied for the meet-up. Let's say Tuesday 21st April, and
see if a few extras can make it if the date is fixed.
Now we need somewhere to meet.
I can recommend the Union Club Hotel off
Smith St, and the Little Creatures Dining
Hallnearby
on Brunswick St, but perhaps somewhere in the city would be more
accessible to people.
Any recommendations?

I vote for somewhere in the city as I'm coming from the south east, so
it'll mean only one train. I don't do much drinking in the city these
days so I don't have any good location suggestions.

If there are votes, I'd vote for city too.. One train is always good :)

I vote for somewhere at Fed Square as having the best public transport and
parking that I know of, but I'm happy to travel anywhere within the CBD.
This will probably suit the straight-from-work crowd best.
Otherwise, Robot in Flinders Lane is a shortish walk and pretty funky.

Here's my basic understanding, not having used Stackless.
Some types of application are best served by a highly threaded programming.
Threads are managed by the OS, and thus have overhead associated with
creating them and switching between them. Stackless is designed to solve
these types of problems more elegantly and with better performance than
CPython.
In stackless python they have lightweight versions of threads (Tasklets?)
which are part of the python interpreter. Since they aren't managed by the
OS, there isn't large overhead in creating them or switching between them.
I'm guessing there's some single-threaded overhead that you pay for using
stackless though, which is the main reason their changes haven't merged into
the main CPython codebase. Because they're maintaining a fork, they're also
lagging behind the main project; for example versions of stackless for
python 2.6 and 3.0 are still labeled unreliable by the stackless team.
Basically, if you don't need a lot of concurrency, CPython will give you
better performance. If you do need a lot of concurrency, Stackless will
perform better, and provide better tools for managing that concurrency so
that you're more productive.
Cheers,
Lars

I would recommend asking this sort of question on the main python list
(see www.python.org).

This is just what I think, not what I know.
Concurrent processing is faster only when you can do two things at once, and
not otherwise.
Multi-threaded programming is concerned with making sure multiple paths of
execution all get fair time-share of the CPU, so that the GUI painting can
get a bit of CPU time every now and then even while other stuff is going on.
However, a simple for loop will execute no quicker multi-threaded than
single-threaded.
For some reason which I genuinely don't understand, lots of people hate this
thing called the global intepreter lock, which basically means that only one
thread can own that lock at any one time. This is needed in order to
guarantee "stuff" in Python's core, mostly reference counts for garbage
collection. However, when you've got only one CPU, it's self-obvious that
you can only do one thing at a time. So it just doesn't matter that there is
a global interpreter lock. The argument against threading without the GIL is
that you need to spend more time maintaining your threads, such that you
don't get any advantages from it. So all your Python stuff runs in a single
operating-system thread, and your "python threads" get time-share of
Python's CPU share, rather than having multiple OS-level Python threads
running. But I still don't see what having multiple OS-level threads buys
you.
What's faster is doing two things at the same time, by utilising multiple
CPUs. That's real concurrency, and *is* faster, but it doesn't require
Stackless either. pyprocessing (2.x) or multiprocessing (3.x) will give you
multiple processes so that you can do two things at once.
My guess is that there are some cases where Stackless is either actually
faster, or just more elegant, than regular CPython, but I wouldn't bet on
it. If it was Just Better, then everyone would be using it.
Cheers,
-T

You're right in that the GIL is used to protect the global interpreter
state, such as reference counting, which are otherwise not thread-
safe. As per its definition, the GIL is a single, global, lock, so
any thread that needs to update the global interpreter state (inc/dec
reference counts) needs to acquire the GIL before continuing.
Python makes it easy to use native OS threads. Changing a CPU
intensive application to split calculations into multiple threads is
also easy. However, on a multi core machine, performance will not
automatically improve linearly as two busy Python threads will almost
always be fighting for the GIL. Instead of a near 2x performance
boost it would gain little over 1x.
For this reason, many people would prefer to remove the GIL and
replace it with many more fine grained locks so contention between
busy threads is reduced. The problem here is that single threaded
code performance may be hurt a bit by having to deal with so many more
locks (constantly acquiring and releasing them). Another problem is
the added complexity to the Python core.
Guido has been against replacing the GIL with fine grained locks and
instead recommends using multi process techniques. These techniques
are obviously much simpler because multiple Python interpreters are
running (one per process) and so there is no contention. Sharing data
between processes becomes the challenge with this model, though.
Another technique is to write CPU intensive code in a Python C
extension such that the busy loop does not make any calls into the
Python interpreter and so can can release the GIL and happily run flat
out in its own thread (hopefully on another CPU core) alongside any
other Python threads.
Finally, with regards to Stackless Python, the aim here is to provide
a framework for "better" development of applications that require
concurrency. "Better" in this sense is more to do with the
concurrency "interface" (microthreads, coroutines, etc vs threads) as
well as readability and maintainability.
Stackless does not take advantage of multiple CPU cores and so
performance gains for CPU bound applications is limited. Ref http://stackoverflow.com/questions/377254/stackless-python-and-multicores
I was interested to find recently that Stackless Python had been
ported to the Sony PSP. If only I had some spare time to have a play. http://code.google.com/p/pspstacklesspython/
-- If anyone can get a demo or game up & running on a PSP to
demonstrate at the pub meetup I'll happily by them a beer :-)
Cheers,
Chris

I'm sold, let's go there.
It looks closest to Melbourne Central train station for those taking a train
in/out.

Some of us are too old these days. But if anyone is interested, even if it's just to tackle the sample problems then go to:
http://www.sci.usq.edu.au/staff/deraadt/acc/index.html
or just goggle Australia programming competition etc. Would people use Python? [Students get to choose 1 language, manual and IDE/command line set up, platform etc. I would prob use python

Hi all,
I was hoping to make it to the meetup - but other things have come up
and I'm going to have to pass this time.
Hopefully it will not be quite as long between this one and the next
meetup. :-)
Cheers,
Rasjid.

No worries. To anyone still debating whether or not to come, I know there
should be at least 4 or 5 people, so you definitely won't turn up to an
empty meeting. There are probably a number more coming that I don't know
about...
Cheers,

I'm still planning on turning up, though I won't stay long as I'm
fighting my daughter's jetlag (this makes sense to me, honest)

I understand the sentiment, if not the details :) ... It will at least be
nice to catch up with you again!

Yeah, it was a good night. Good to meet new faces, catch up with some people
I already knew. I found that the pub-then-dinner format let me spend time
catching up with people, which I liked.
Cheers,
