Terrible. If you have a memory-intensive application, use ASM (perhaps C), not Python (or any other high-level language for that matter.) > My plan is to try measuring the memory usage of my python code elements and > take a guess as to how it might perform on a cell-system.. . naturally a good > idea in any event..

If you wanted to get Python processes to run on the cells, you'd probably need a special interpreter written with that in mind. My memory of how the cell technology works is that there is really a tiny amount of memory in each cell and you need to think at a fundamentally low level to get anything useful done. I'm extremely interested in what you discover, and I'm sure others are well. I'd love to be proven wrong in my assumptions. So keep us posted when you find something interesting or useful. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
