Re: right list for SIGABRT python binary question ?

OK, here's the first bit which might be part of the puzzle of why my Python script SIGABRT's. When run under "normal" py2.7 it runs all the way through but upon shutdown (*after* sys.exit(0)) faulthandler shows a problem (and returns 134 which made me think of SIGABRT): *** Error in `pyth

Re: multiprocessing shows no benefit

I've read the docs several times, but I still have questions. I've even used multiprocessing before, but not map() from it. I am not sure if map() will let me use a common object (via a manager) and if so, how to set that up. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: multiprocessing shows no benefit

I refactored the map call to break dict_keys into cpu_count() chunks, (so each f() call gets to run continuously over n/cpu_count() items) virtually the same results. pool map is much slower (4x) than regular map, and I don't know why. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
