Attached is a minimal reproducer script which is sufficient to show the issue clearly. It is a simple single-thread Tkinter program with one canvas. No multiprocessing, no shared variables, no connections between instances. Instructions at top of file. Results on i7-6700HQ, 4-core (8 thread), 2.60GHz, 16GB, Windows 10:- 1 process running alone: 29k objects/sec 6 processes running concurrently: 4.3k objects/sec each, = 25.8k objects/sec combined. Conclusion: One-core performance, global system-wide lock. ---------- Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file48232/mosaic.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36408> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
