Does Jython improve GIL issues of python by using JVM based threads? Will code work faster on Jython then CPython? Can anybody help me to understand this?
Speaking personally I've always fond CPython to be faster than equivalent code in Jython. But that's purely anecdotal, I haven't performed any extensive tests. However, I'd certainly not be rushing to port code to Jython as a speed improvement - Cython now, that's a different story...
