Hi all,
I have a large graph of about 8 million rows represented in two Lua tables 
(dictionaries, not arrays).  Two tables (but same rows) because each table is 
keyed differently.  (a batch Lua process is recalculating them both constantly)

The graph is changing quite frequently and I want to let multiple (probably Lua 
CGI) processes run shortest-path analysis (read-only) on these tables.

Given the volume of data, and the rate of change, it seems crazy to instantiate 
those tables again and again in each Lua instance.  So instead, I'm wondering 
if Rings (or some other technique) will allow me to grant read-only access to 
those tables from other (parallel) Lua processes?

If not, is there another way to do this without forcing each of my CGI 
processes to consume that much ram and be offline while they constantly reload??

Thanks for any help or advice you can provide.
Dewey
