Multiple processes are usually preferable to multiple threads. The default-shared-nothing memory model is less bug-prone than default-shared-everything. Think of every time you use “&” and “|” in a shell command line: you are creating multiple processes, and yet they are doing a “single conceptual job”. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
