attached to the function will be serialized along with it, so if you
have a big dataset in the same environment, you'll get that too.
I vaguely recall th
Hi all,
assume the following problem: a function call takes a function object
and a data variable and calls this function with this data on a remote
host. It uses serialization to pass both the function and the data via a
socket connection to a remote host. The problem is that depending on the
