Release GIL before calling compost C ++ util

[sshankar619]

Can GIL be released before calling compose c/ C++ util?

pynini/extensions/_pynini.pyx

Line 749 in 27ce190

def __matmul__(self, other):

Will be helpful to execute the code in parallel with threadpool instead of processpool dependency

It is, but that happens at a lower level: https://github.com/kylebgorman/pynini/blob/27ce19048193358cd362a4de6b157cb43ab6e2eb/extensions/cpywrapfst.pxd#L527 https://github.com/kylebgorman/pynini/blob/27ce19048193358cd362a4de6b157cb43ab6e2eb/extensions/cpywrapfst.pxd#L562 So the GIL is released once you’re into the C++ part of things. If you have some concrete idea of how to safely move this further up the stack, though, let me know.

Hi thanks for quick reply.

Existing code is not releasing gil during fst compose (tested in my internal pipeline) have raised a pull request with changes required,
Verified in my pipeline that with this code changes gil is released
