You still get multiple threads, which is still useful. Note that many operations do unlock the GIL and give you parallelism, for example performing I/O. So using QThreads in Python to implement parallel I/O or asynchronous I/O is very much a reasonable thing to do.
It just won't help with speeding up CPU-limited Python code. -Marian Am 06.12.19 um 17:33 schrieb Jason H: > What those links say and what is actually happening here are two different > things. > > It looks like the only way he can do this is to write the thread code in C++, > and export that through Shiboken to Python.
