(BTW: it's better form to reply beneath the original text, not above it.)
None of the solutions try the obvious thing of closing the file before
spawning more processes. Would that work for you? A "with" statement
is a convenient way to do this:
with open(filename,'r') as f:
data = f.read()
The file is closed automatically when the with statement ends.
