Hi all, I'd like to collect snmp data from varoius network devices parallel.
First I tried with my own threadpool class then I gave a try to Christopher Arndt's threadpool.py (http://chrisarndt.de/en/software/python/threadpool.html). I got the same result: with one thread it finished about 2 mins with more threads it needed more and more time. Maybe I ran into the situation where threads aren't the best. I use yapsnmp (fair easy to 'snmpwalk') for collecting. it uses net-snmp. Could you give me some advice how can I make my script really parallel? My options maybe: 1. pySNMP (as it's full in python) 2. subprocess (I'd like to make (find) a solution as threadpool.py) (running yapsnmp, pySNMP or even net-snmp?...) 3. TwistedSNMP (seems too weird for me.. cannot imagine a simple solution for my problem) 4. ... thanks for your help -- --arutz -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
