PEP 556 – Threaded garbage collection

PEP 556 and the following PEPs are included to show recent PEP submissions that are potentially interesting, due to their impact on the Python ecosystem.

PEP 556 was created in September, 2017, and is currently in Draft status. It is expected to be included in Python v3.7. It proposes a new mode of operation for Python's garbage collection. The new mode would allow implicit collection to occur within a dedicated thread, rather than synchronously with the CPU.
