Holding the GIL for too long could disrupt the heartbeat due to non-copying sends.

The following cell repeatedly calls a function that holds the GIL for five seconds.

The heartbeat will fail after a few iterations prior to fixing Issue #1260.

        print time.time()
        sys.stdout.flush() # this is important
