um... does it really matter? It's less than a second and only once on the program startup... if you've found yourself destroying small python processes thousands of times, try creating the controller program in python, so this controller program would import the "small modules" and doesn't restart python interpreters that many times. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
