Please introduce a multi-processing library in Perl or Ruby

Question

In python we can use multiprocessing modules. If there is a similar library in Perl and Ruby, would you teach it? I would appreciate it if you can include a brief sample.

Answer 1

Ruby:

• Working with multiple processes in Ruby
• Concurrency is a Myth in Ruby

Perl:

• Harnessing the power of multicore
• Why Perl Is a Great Language for Concurrent Programming

Also, Perl's threads are native operating system threads, so you can just use those to take advantage of multiple cores.
