Gregory P. Smith added the comment: Do you honestly have a situation where you need to share a computationally significant amount of hashing state only to want to finish the computation N different times with alternate computationally significant ending data that multiprocessing would actually help with where you cannot use threads? Hashlib releases the GIL during nontrivial hash computations.
