Except Gary has a large persistent data structure, and Trent's only rule is "don't persist objects you want to operate on in parallel." The similarity may be purely superficial, though. @Gary: Justifying your request is unnecessary. As far as I can see, everybody acknowledges that "large shared data structure" + "multiple cores" is something that Python doesn't do well enough in some sense. It's just a hard problem, and the applications that really need it are sufficiently specialized that we haven't been able to justify turning the world upside down to serve them. Trent seems to be on to something that requires only a bit of a tilt ;-), and despite the caveat above, I agree with David, check it out: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2015-September/141485.html
