gmpy doesn't (release the GIL), even though it IS computationally intensive -- I tried, but it slows things down horribly even on an Intel Core Duo. I suspect that may partly be due to the locking strategy of the underlying GMP 4.2 library (which I haven't analyzed in depth). In practice, when I want to exploit both cores to the hilt with gmpy-based computations, I run multiple processes. Alex -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
