[Zope-dev] Shared Libraries and Persistent Objects

Hey guys, I've got a question about how Zope deals with shared libraries. Say I have a 2Meg shared library that I've generated with SWIG. (I know it's big, but for sake of argument) Say then that I create a Python Class that imports this library and provides a front-end for each of its exported methods. Then, I instantiate this class 2000 times within a Zope instance. My question is, the library code is loaded into memory once, right? That seems to be what should happen, but I want to make sure before I start selling people here on SWIGing a few utilities and bundling them into one of our Zope objects instead of doing fork/execs to call an executable. I'm not shifting the burden from loading time to storage size, am I? Thanks, Monty
