One of the drawcards of using python is that it is relatively platform independent - so windows users have a reasonable expectation that their code will run.
Windows itself is not a problem - I've written many C++ programs using boost::thread that work just fine on windows. Perhaps this requires a special case in the code, but I'm sure it can be done and if we want to increase our take up, then I feel that this must be addressed. -----Original Message----- From: Vlad Niculae <[email protected]> Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2011 10:27:25 To: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Scikit-learn-general] Python.exe keep spawning when njobs in GridSearchCV is not 1 Hello That is the way joblib multiprocessing behaves on Windows, as far as I know. Gaël is aware of this, but there are not that many scikit-learn users running windows on the mailing list.
