Why not use MPI? It's cross platform, cross language and very widely

The point of pyprocessing is that fact that the API is the same as that
of the threading module - making it very easy to convert a multithreaded
program to a multiprocessing one, and hence making it easy to exploit
multiple processors in a CPU bound Python program, regardless of the
restrictions imposed by Python's GIL.
Cheers,
Nick.
