multi-processing problem

Python Help

When I use pyinstaller to package multi-processing programs, I can only use this multiprocessing. set_ start_ Method ('spawn '), otherwise the program will not run normally, but using spawn will increase memory overhead, so how can I solve this problem.

Unfortunately, AFAIK that’s a fundamental limitation of how pyinstaller works, so you have to either:

  • Use pyinstaller and mulitprocessing and accept the overhead
  • Use a different parallelism model than multiprocessing (asyncio, threading, subinterpreters, a third-party library, etc)
  • Use a different packaging method than pyinstaller that does support it
  • Use a different Python interpreter than CPython, such as PyPy, Stackless, GraalPython, etc. which may support lighter-weight multiprocessing primitives

Best of luck.
