Scalene leverages several aspects of the CPython interpreter. We've restructured some aspects of Scalene so it (incidentally, probably) isn't so dependent on the presence of the GIL. That said, we have not looked into JPython or other Python implementations (Scalene used to work with |

pypy, but no longer does due to some missing features).
