Some years ago, (for comparison) synchronous JavaScript ajax requests were deprecated because of the overhead.
I’m in the following situation :

def ssh_network_operation_with_paramiko(string):
    server_response=Do_some_stuff_with_null_characters_in_string(string)
    Do_something_with_server_response(server_response)

for i in very_very_large_range
    ssh_network_operation_with_paramiko(i)

Basically, using process or threads would be synonym of creating a fork bomb.

So is it possible to do perform asynchronous calls without creating threads or process like with ajax in JavaScript ? Because all I found currently involve creating threads or process were each of them perform only one function at time.

  • @Drakosha : In a python multiprocessing pool, each process perform one function at time (implying waiting for server response), which is too slow. Commented Nov 2, 2015 at 19:53

    not sure what you are looking for. In any case thread can do only one thing at a time. You might be looking for asynchronous operations. Commented Nov 17, 2015 at 19:20
  • @Drakosha yes, but with paramiko? Commented Feb 15, 2016 at 13:29
