| RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration
If you do not actually need a dict, an explicitly managed list is an
[untested]alternative.
maxproc = #
procs = []
while True:
if len(procs) < maxproc: [populate procs up to maxproc]
i, nprocs = 0, len(procs)
if not nprocs: break
while i < nprocs:
if terminated(procs[i]):
del procs[i]
nprocs -= 1
else:
i += 1
I am assuming that maxproc is low enough that the O(n) behavior of deletion
is inconsequential.
