[GRLUG] Shared Memory

[Mike Mol]

Net connection is down atm, so I can't be detailed.

Shm on x86 (win or lin) typically refers to mmap'ing a file, often one that only exists in memory.

HTH, someone else might be able to offer Python-specific details.

Subject: [GRLUG] Shared Memory

This might be a question for the Python user's group but I wanted to get a broader response.

I've used the "shmop" set of functions to write shared memory support into my applications - does anyone know of something that works better and can be "sandboxed" perhaps in some way - or shared memory that can be run under "namespaces".

I know there are several other shared memory programs out there - just wanted to know if anyone has any experience or can make suggestions.
(access by literal key would be preferred to storing memory offsets/pointers)

Thanks in Advance.... 

P.S. - Must run on linux! :)
