Global interpreter lock in Python thread Gil (Global interpreter Lock)

Python--> supports multithreading--sync and mutex--locking--interpreter lock--interpreter can only interpret one thread at a time

In the CPython interpreter, multiple threads that are opened under the same process can only have one thread at a time and cannot take advantage of multicore advantages

The Gil is not a Python feature, it is a concept introduced when implementing the Python Interpreter (CPython), and Python is completely independent of the Gil.

Workaround:
* Use multiple processes instead of multithreading
* Use other interpreters
