Will CLPython have a global interpreter lock? Will it allow different threads to touch Python objects simultaneously on different cores?
My impression is that there is no need for a global lock: if CLPython were running in an SMP-capable Lisp implementation then multiple threads could execute Python code concurrently. But for that to work correctly, first many parts of CLPython must be made thread-safe. I've not given this any attention yet. - Willem
