GIL, threads and scheduling - performance cost

[adsheehan at eircom.net]

Merci Pierre,

Yes I agree and plan to move more to C/C++ and releasing the GIL when
entering C/C++.

I also need to understand my original question re GIL and rescheduling.
I fear that lock/unlock too often is also causing delays due to context
switching.

BTW do you have any hints/comments on SWIG/BOOST etc to glue PY and
C/C++ ?
