Summary: Process-based threading interface for Python
Description: 
This package supports spawning processes using an API similar to the
threading module. The multiprocessing package offers both local and
remote concurrency, effectively side-stepping the Global Interpreter
Lock by using subprocesses instead of threads. Due to this, the
multiprocessing module allows the programmer to fully leverage multiple
processors on a given machine.
