I read about the problems with CPython and CPU bound threads and the GIL and some changes in Python 3.2.

Do IronPython and Jython have this same problem?

Thanks

No, neither have a GIL at all.

See previous answer about Jython and IronPython wiki page.

  • To stay fast (and safer) in other Python interpreters, use [multiprocessing](http://docs.python.org/library/multiprocessing.html). – Cees Timmerman Mar 12 '12 at 11:55
