e2863083fa30 multiprocessing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 350 diff changeset	701 This might seem surprising, as Orthanc is a threaded server (in
e2863083fa30 multiprocessing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 350 diff changeset	702 Orthanc, a pool of C++ threads serves concurrent requests).

e2863083fa30 multiprocessing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 350 diff changeset	704 The explanation is that the Python interpreter (`CPython
e2863083fa30 multiprocessing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 350 diff changeset	705 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPython>`__ actually) is built on the
e2863083fa30 multiprocessing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 350 diff changeset	706 top of a so-called `Global Interpreter Lock (GIL)
e2863083fa30 multiprocessing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 350 diff changeset	707 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_interpreter_lock>`__. The GIL is
e2863083fa30 multiprocessing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 350 diff changeset	708 basically a mutex that protects all the calls to the Python
e2863083fa30 multiprocessing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 350 diff changeset	709 interpreter. If multiple C++ threads from Orthanc call a Python
353 0122c668f4ec python licensing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 352 diff changeset	710 callback, only one can proceed at any given time. Note however that
0122c668f4ec python licensing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 352 diff changeset	711 the GIL only applies to the Python script: The baseline REST API of
0122c668f4ec python licensing Sebastien Jodogne <s.jodogne@gmail.com> parents: 352 diff changeset	712 Orthanc is not affected by the GIL.
