The single biggest new feature in Python 3.13 is something Python users have anticipated for ages: a version of Python that allows full concurrency, or multi-threading, by removing the Global ...
Given the vast majority of Python applications are single-threaded, this was a poor trade-off. Although refinements to the GIL have improved its handling of multi-threaded apps, it’s still a ...
For multi-threaded workloads, the lack of a GIL allows it to shine, blowing past the default interpreter with an 18x speedup by running 20 threads. Not too shabby. As for merging into mainline ...
For a long time now, researchers have been working on automating the process of breaking up otherwise single-threaded code to run on multiple processors by way of multiple threads. Results, although ...
Without hyper-threading, the CPU scored 46,872 points on PassMark's multi-threaded test, well behind AMD's Ryzen 9 9950X and Intel's previous-generation i9-14900K, which scored 66,702 and 60,305 ...
But don't panic, AMD's new chips will probably be very quick at both. AMD is on the record scheduling its next-gen Zen CPUs, to be known as the Ryzen 8000 series, for next year. We could even see ...
Or to be more specific, it's single-threaded score came in 11 percent higher than an Intel Core i7-10900K, and 24 percent higher than the Ryzen 9 3950X. ... and 12,366 in the multi-threaded test.
Looking at multi-threaded performance, the Intel Core i7-7700K score of 20243 slots it in at just faster than the Intel Core i7-6800K which is a 6-core processor with a base clock speed of just 3 ...
A leaked benchmark comparison between Intel's Core i9-14900K and Core i9-13900K, as shared by @wxnod, suggests potential advancements in multi-threaded performance as well. It's important to ...
In the multi-threaded test, the Core i7-12700K scored 9,423.2. It can't keep pace with the 16-core/32-thread Ryzen 9 5950X, which scores 11,856 in the same test, giving it a 25.8 percent advantage ...
