Python’s multithreading and GIL

Python is a great language 😃, but the GIL (Global Interpreter Lock) is a huge
bottleneck 😢. It’s a lock that is held by the interpreter while executing any Python code. This
means that if you have a bunch of Python threads running, they all will have to
wait for the GIL to be released. This can be a problem, because the GIL is
held for a long time, which can lead to many performance issues.

The GIL is released whenever a thread is ready to run, and it’s held back
until all threads are ready to run. This means that if you have a bunch of
Python threads running, they’ll all be waiting for the GIL to be released
but they’ll all be blocked still after release. So, even though the threads will
