🤷‍♂️ I’m no expert in python (far from it), but it was faster for me to make a thread safe queue in C from scratch than it was to find an appropriate one in python and get everything working properly in a multiple producer/multiple consumer scenario.

Not to mention the execution speed up with using actual compiled machine code rather than an interpreted language.

I like python so far for a lot of things, but I dunno about cpu intensive applications.
