[issue7946] Convoy effect with I/O bound threads and New GIL

[David Beazley]

One comment on that patch I just submitted. Basically, it's an attempt to make an extremely simple tweak to the GIL that fixes most of the problems discussed here in an extremely simple manner.  I don't have any special religious attachment to it though.  Would love to see a BFS comparison.
