Processing is a Python package which supports the spawning of processes
|
||
|
using the API of the standard library's threading module. Features include:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Objects can be transferred between processes using pipes or
|
||
|
multi-producer/multi-consumer queues.
|
||
|
* Objects can be shared between processes using a server process or
|
||
|
(for simple data) shared memory.
|
||
|
* Equivalents of all the synchronization primitives in threading
|
||
|
are available.
|
||
|
* A Pool class makes it easy to submit tasks to a pool of worker
|
||
|
processes.
