I know. I have a werkzeug/gunicorn application that currently runs 60 worker processes on a 64 core server.
And I would love nothing better than to rip out every. single. last. one. of the IPC facilities, and replace them with the same easy and convenient mutex and CSP systems, that I can use in my Golang applications.

I know, but "rewrite it in Rust/Go/C++" isn't always an option, be it because of legacy status, constraints in available dev-hours, compatibility problems, library support or simply ease of use.
