Well, I don't know in which way you use "top", but by default it will only show you the N most CPU-consuming processes. If the R bindings, for example (here begins the wild speculation on my part :-)), fork in the background so as to run the R engine in a separate process, the CPU-consuming processes would not be those directly created by multiprocessing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15603> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
