Has any attempt been made to pin threads?
I don't know. But I do know that processor/thread binding (if that is what you mean by "pin") is *extremely* important in Sandy Bridge, even more than on previous archs. And, oddly enough, in my experience is more difficult to get it right than on previous arch.
Unfortunately, the runtime I have most experience with is very different from the standard gcc-pthreads-fork which I believe would be relevant here, so my experience is useless in this context.
Good luck finding the way to do this right, keep us posted! Dav _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
