# Multi CPU Processing

[**Numpy**](https://gitlab.com/tenzing/shared-array) **on multi process, and** [**how to use it.**](https://medium.com/analytics-vidhya/multiprocessing-for-data-scientists-in-python-427b2ff93af1)

   2. [**Ditributed sklearn**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Zf6DQaf7jk) **(amazing)**
3. [**Dask vs swifter vs vectorize**](https://gdcoder.com/speed-up-pandas-apply-function-using-dask-or-swifter-tutorial/)
   1. **Dask is dask**
   2. **Swifter will attempt to understand if dask or pandas apply should be used, looks like its using multi cpu so it may not be just using dask on the backend?**
   3. **Vectorize is just another option**

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.mlcompendium.com/foundation-knowledge/multi-cpu-processing.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
