Please describe what you are trying to do.**\nFree threaded python is being explored https://docs.python.org/3/howto/free-threading-python.html\nRight now the infrastructure isn't fully built out but is continuing to expand and many major packages are starting to add support (sometimes marked experimental)\n\n**Describe the solution you'd like**\nIt would be nice to understand the scope of work required to support free threading.\nSkimming the pyo3 description it looks like the previous work to mark all/most classes as frozen should make the transition easier. However, there is still the infrastructure burden because free threading requires a separate wheel for each python version (3.13 and 3.14 currently). https://pyo3.rs/v0.27.2/free-threading\n\n**Additional context**\nLinking issue from Rerun which motivated starting to look into this https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/issues/12269","author":{"url":"https://github.com/ntjohnson1","@type":"Person","name":"ntjohnson1"},"datePublished":"2025-12-18T18:54:27.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/1324/datafusion-python/issues/1324"}
