python2.5 - unnecessary multiple processes forked

Hi, I am porting a pygtk application to maemo. It works alright, but I noticed that it was consuming lot of memory, preventing me from opening other applications. When I investigated, I found that my python application was forking 4 more instances of itself, each one identical in memory

Re: python2.5 - unnecessary multiple processes forked

I'm not sure but think it is because of gnome-vfs. Don't know proper terminology but maybe each vfs 'provider' in the dialog (like mmc, phone etc.) starts new process or something like that. That sounds correct. I experimented with other dialogs that do no involve filesystem access

Re: python2.5 - unnecessary multiple processes forked

I found out that the sluggishness observed was because of the Microb engine. Last night when I tried by switching to Opera engine, it worked very fast. So it's not the multiple threads that hildon or GTK fork, that cause performance issues. On 1/3/08, Jayesh Salvi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote

question on python opengl ES bindings

Hi, I was investigating OpenGL python bindings on Fremantle. As I understand from previous discussion on this topic: although PyOpenGL will work in Fremantle SDK, it won't work on real hardware which will run OpenGL ES. So I started looking for python bindings for OpenGL ES. From the top search
