Hello,

Just recently learned about memory-mapped files (module mmap). If two
processes open the same file, this file is mapped for both processes. So at
the same time the same memory space can be accesses by two processes. The
documentation stated that memory-mapped files can (and are) used for
inter-process communication. Also, you can work with the memory-mapped
files using indexing (just like strings).

So you might want to have a look at memory-mapped files if not considered
before. Might help to solve your problem.
