This is a special version of PyPy that contains the "Software
Transactional Memory" (STM) plug-in called stmgc-c7. It gives a
replacement for Python's classical Global Interpreter Lock (GIL). The
-current version scales only up to around 4 cores; the next version of
+current version comes with a modest single-core overhead and scales only
+up to around 4 cores on some examples; the next version of
the plug-in, stmgc-c8, is in development and should address that
limitation. Both versions only support 64-bit Linux; we'd welcome
someone to port stmgc-c8 to other (64-bit) platforms.
