Is there a module for Ruby that makes it easy to share objects between multiple processes? I’m looking for something similar to Python’s multiprocessing, which supports process-safe queues and pipes that can be shared between processes.

Combining DRb, which provides simple inter-process communication, with Queue or SizedQueue, which are both threadsafe queues, should give you what you need.
