PYRO/multiprocessing proxies isn't a comparable solution because of ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE worser performance. You compare here direct memory access vs serialization/message passing through sockets/pipes.
The bottleneck is likely the serialization, but only if you serialize large objects. IPC is always very fast, at least on localhost .
Just out of curiosity, have you considered using a database? Sqlite and BSD DB can even be put in shared memory if you want. It sounds like you are trying to solve a database problem using os.fork, something which is more or less doomed to fail (i.e. you have to replicate all effort put into scaling up databases). If a database is too slow, I am rather sure you need something else than Python as well.
