[Psyco-devel] 'threading' module

[Armin R. <ar...@tu...>]

Hello everybody,

I was pointed out to a problem with the 'threading' module; when you use it,
the functions running in the threads are sometimes not Psyco-accelerated (but
they sometimes are -- nothing quite consistent).

The problem turned out to be that 'threading' makes a local copy of 
'thread.start_new_thread', a function which Psyco needs to patch with its own 
version. So if you actually do

   import psyco.profiler

before

   import threading

it works nicely :-)

I have of course fixed the problem (together with another related problem) in
the latest CVS version.


A bientot,

Armin.
