This is fantastic progress for CPython. I had almost given up hope that CPython would overcome the GIL after first hitting its limitations over 10 years ago.

That being said I strongly believe that because of the sharp edges on async style code vs proper co-routine-based user threads like go-routines and Java virtual threads Python is still far behind optimal parallelism patterns.
