"A Fundamental Turn Toward Concurrency in Software"

[aurora]

Hello!

Just gone though an article via Slashdot titled "The Free Lunch Is Over: A  
Fundamental Turn Toward Concurrency in Software"  
[http://www.gotw.ca/publications/concurrency-ddj.htm]. It argues that the  
continous CPU performance gain we've seen is finally over. And that future  
gain would primary be in the area of software concurrency taking advantage  
hyperthreading and multicore architectures.

Perhaps something the Python interpreter team can ponder.
