On their own, AsyncIO and multiprocessing are useful, but limited:
AsyncIO still can't exceed the speed of GIL, and multiprocessing only works on
one task at a time. But together, they can fully realize their true potential.

aiomultiprocess presents a simple interface, while running a full AsyncIO event
loop on each child process, enabling levels of concurrency never before seen
in a Python application. Each child process can execute multiple coroutines
at once, limited only by the workload and number of cores available.

Gathering tens of thousands of network requests in seconds is as easy as:

```python
async with Pool() as pool:
results = await pool.map(, )
```

Install
-------

aiomultiprocess requires Python 3.6 or newer.
You can install it from PyPI:

```bash
$ pip3 install aiomultiprocess
```

Usage
-----

Most of aiomultiprocess mimics the standard multiprocessing module whenever
possible, while accounting for places that benefit from async functionality.

Running your asynchronous jobs on a pool of worker processes is easy:

```python
import asyncio
from aiohttp import request
from aiomultiprocess import Pool

async def get(url):
async with request("GET", url) as response:
return await response.text("utf-8")

async def main():
urls = ["https://noswap.com", ...]
async with Pool() as pool:
async for result in pool.map(get, urls):
... # process result

if __name__ == '__main__':
# Python 3.7
asyncio.run(main())

# Python 3.6
# loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
# loop.run_until_complete(main())
```
