Correct. Windows provides the building blocks for implementing getloadavg(), but does not provide an interface that does the averaging. That is deferred to a per application basis. The best that an application can do for that is to use thread pools. You can think of thread pools as kernel-managed threads (different from user-managed threads via CreateThread()). As of Win10 1703, any process linked with DLLs automatically have thread pools created for them (to parallel-ize the loading of said DLLs). Leveraging that feature would minimize the costs incurred to do the running average. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34060> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
