Note that even leaving out the garbage collector, the cPython VM incrementing/decrementing the refcount of objects will force the copy. The python multiprocessing module has some classes which allow explicitly sharing memory. Certainly for various caches e.g. if they're just read-only after a certain point it might make sense to wrap them in e.g. a multiprocessing.Value. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
