+1 from me, which you already knew :) For folks that haven't read Eric Snow's PEP 554 about exposing multiple interpreter support as a Python level API, Antoine's proposed zero-copy-data-management enhancements for pickle complement that nicely, since they allow the three initial communication primitives in PEP 554 (passing None, bytes, memory views) to be more efficiently expanded to handling arbitrary objects by sending first the pickle data, then the out-of-band memory views, and finally None as an end-of-message marker.
