I'm sure that > Oracle databases can do parallel processing by now... :-) Good question but I try to explain what motivates me to do it. First reason (I think the most important :-) ) is that I want to learn something new - I am new to python (I am unix/storage sysadmin but with programming background so python was a natural choice for more complicated sysadmin tasks). Another reason is that our server (and I am responsible for it) has many, many but slow cores (as I had written before). It means that parallelization of operations is obvious - the developer is not keen to spent much time on it (she is busy) - and for me this is something new (among some boring daily tasks ... ;-) ) and fresh :-) Another intention is to get some more knowledge about parallelization: how to divide some task into subtasks, what is the most optimal way to do it, etc And the last reason is that I love performance tuning :-) Regards Przemyslaw Bak (przemol) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Zmyslowa bielizna?
