Hot-swapping Python modules. An experiment.

2015-02-18

A new project I’m involved with will probably require dozens of servers running several thousands greenlets each. Top-level greenlets represent jobs and their children will be individual tasks those greenlets are coordinating/supervising.

This model, however prototypical, resembles that of the OTP in Erlang. A greenlet may be either …
