For game programming purposes, I was hoping someone could point me to a technique for sharing objects across Python processes, preferably without any kind of marshal/unmarshal steps. It's a long shot, I know. To be viable, I'll need to be able to pass messages between processes very quickly. For example, It would be simple to paralellize some graphics calculations over two processors with each process sharing a common read-only scene data structure; however, a marshalling step in this kind of process would be too costly. I've used three of the libraries you mention, however, they are not very usable for the task I had in mind, but are of course excellent for other server based programming tasks. > But I have the feeling I'm teaching my grandmother...

What exactly does it mean? -Sw. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
