The gc acquires the big interpreter lock before doing it's stuff. which is not the same thing, since C code could be doing bad stuff. Question, how the gc differentiates between an unreachable object and an object that's reachable only by C code? -- Ideas don't stay in some minds very long because they don't like solitary confinement.
