 ### Experimental JIT compiler

-`--enable-experimental-jit=yes-off`. This means that if you want to

 ### Free threaded CPython (no GIL)
 
-With this new version of Python interpreter there's an option to build
-without the famous [Global Interpreter Lock](https://docs.python.org/3.13/whatsnew/3.13.html#free-threaded-cpython),
-aka GIL. This is a really experimental feature, but why not have this
-on Tumbleweed? So we decided to build also this new version with a new
-package `python313-nogil`.
