It might allow cheaper entry/exit for blocking regions; so we can use more blocking regions to achieve parallelism. GVL release/acquire is expensive at the moment; so there's places where we hold the GVL (e.g. readdir calls) and sacrifice parallelism when dealing with slow filesystems. Also, pthread_cond_wait is just like ConditionVariable#wait in that it must re-lock the mutex after sleeping. This re-lock can be contended, and it should not be necessary if we move away from condvars for some platforms (Linux and win32). The signaller (FUTEX_WAKE/SetEvent) can remove from the waitqueue while it's holding the lock, so the sleeper won't have to. Anyways, just a small idea in my head and totally unproven.
