# Multiprocessing

0.10.0 (latest) 0.9.0 0.8.0 0.7.0 0.6.18 0.5.1 0.4.0 0.3.2 0.2.1 0.1.2 **NOTE** : Because this client uses [`grpc`](https://grpc.github.io/grpc/python/grpc.html#module-grpc) library, it is safe to
share instances across threads. In multiprocessing scenarios, the best
practice is to create client instances *after* the invocation of
[`os.fork()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.fork) by [`multiprocessing.pool.Pool`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#multiprocessing.pool.Pool) or
[`multiprocessing.Process`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#multiprocessing.Process).
