Platform: Windows 7 Assume 32bit versions of both. My current understanding is that it is NOT possible since both installation processes involve replacing the python.exe itself. I guess the source for each would have to be merged in order to get…

Does Pypy's stackless thread option support parallel execution?

I was reading about PyPy's stackless feature. My question is simple: does this get around the GIL? The page says it allows coding in "massively concurrent style". Does this also mean massively parallel style, taking advantage of multiple cores?
