SoxBindings doesn't release GIL.

Open pseeth opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Following discussion in #4, SoxBindings "works" in multithreading in that it doesn't fail, but it doesn't let you actually use multi-threading. We can fix that by releasing the GIL in the C extension.

@pseeth is there some news on this?

Is there any reason we can't use multiprocessing instead? The GIL isn't so much of an issue in that case. Or does it introduce too much overhead?
