Hi, Guido! I've found you as translator of pystones.py test into Python (from C). Can you give explanation of the below fact of running several parralel pystones.py processes and not affecting results. Is pure processing time calculated?

Effectively doubling perfomance...

They all seem to run sequentially, and the numbers do not change even if I try to run 32 of them in parallel.
