# Multiprocessing

1.11.0 (latest) 1.10.0 1.9.0 1.8.0 1.7.0 1.6.0 1.5.5 1.4.2 1.3.0 1.2.8 1.1.0 1.0.0 0.1.4 **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).
