I just read Eric update quite recent on CSP. https://gitlab.com/esr/reposurgeon/-/blob/master/GoNotes.ado...

"Translation from Python, which is a dreadful language to try to do concurrency in due to its global interpreter lock, really brought home to me how unobtrusively brilliant the Go implementation of Communicating Sequential Processes is. The primitives are right and the integration with the rest of the language is wonderfully seamless. The Go port of reposurgeon got some very large speedups at an incremental-complexity cost that I found to be astonishingly low. I am impressed both by the power of the CSP part of the design and the extreme simplicity and non-fussiness of the interface it presents. I hope it will become a model for how concurrency is managed in future languages."
