New submission from STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com>:
The join() method of multiprocessing.Pool calls self._worker_handler.join():
it's a thread running _handle_workers(). The core of this thread function is:
while thread._state == RUN or (pool._cache and thread._state !=
TERMINATE):
pool._maintain_pool()
time.sleep(0.1)
I understand that the delay of 100 ms is used to check regularly the stop
condition changed. This sleep causes a mandatory delay of 100 ms on Pool.join().
