Still, ought to be mentioned  .
@mergen3107: Python/bash is unlikely to be much of an issue here. It's going to be expensive to sspawn, but that's it. I'm assuming this *isn't* spawned every time, but instead spawned once (i.e., a daemon).
Once that's out of the way, Python is actually likely to be less awful than bash, because bash isn't even bash here, but an old and ugly busybox ash  .
If you *do* need to spawn stuff often, you've kind of already lost before even starting, so, back to the design phase  .

There's native FBINK support in Python? Cool, will make my code simpler!
