Yea, I am a struggling to figure out what the secret sauce of this library and if that sauce is introducing foot guns down the line.

Multiprocessing std uses fork in linux distros already. I once ran a multiprocess code on Linux and Windows and there was a significant improvement in performance when running Linux.



They're deprecating fork in 1 or 2 versions, one of the main issues with it is copies locks across processes which can cause deadlocks.
