David Beazley <d...@dabeaz.com> added the comment: I've updated the GIL patch to reflect concerns about the monitor thread running forever. This version has a suspension mechanism where the monitor goes to sleep if nothing is going on for awhile. It gets resumed if threads try to acquire the GIL, but timeout for some reason.
