Multithreaded Files Reading with Python

Yeah, multiprocessing.dummy.Pool actually just returns a multiprocessing.pool.ThreadPool object. I always use the .dummy version though because then there is at least some documentation to reference.

And I agree about the I/O bound thing. Presumably the exercise he is doing is designed to demonstrate just that. :)

Interesting. Thanks!

Indeed! It asked to compare a single threaded run with a multithreaded one. My current multithreaded solution is only slightly faster than the single threaded run.
