I've noticed over the past few weeks lots of questions asked about multi-processing (including myself).
For those of you new to multi-processing, perhaps this thread may help you. Some things I want to start off with to point out are: "multiprocessing will not always help you get things done faster." "be aware of I/O bound applications vs. CPU bound" "multiple CPUs (cores) can compute multiple concurrent expressions - not read 2 files concurrently" "in some cases, you may be after distributed processing rather than multi or parallel processing" cheers James -- -- "Problems are solved by method" -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
