This probably means that you are not using fork to start your
child processes and you have forgotten to use the proper idiom
in the main module:
if name == 'main':
freeze_support()
...
The "freeze_support()" line can be omitted if the program
is not going to be frozen to produce an executable.
I am working with the Python version 3.9 and I'm running the code on remote machine through ssh.
The remote machine is a Mac.
Hi Max. Could you try putting your code in a function or using if __name__ == "__main__"?
Something like:
if __name__ == "__main__":
# your code goes here.
It seems the fitting procedure has been started successfully, it's running. I've used
if name == "main":
# your code goes here.
Great! I think if you don't use the main check then the module gets
imported when the new process starts causing a recursion.

Do you mean the module spawn.py?
@rhayes777 Any advise for how I should build this into example scripts to ensure it doesnt crop up again? Would be annoying to have extra lines of code (e.g. if name == "main") in every script.
I don't think there is anyway to avoid this exception on MacOS doing multiprocessing without that check. I'll have a dig just in case.
Hi, I’m afraid (though I’m not sure this is the true reason) there is some problem with the solution you have found.
In fact whenever I launch the script with that command you suggested, I’m leaved with tons of background python multiprocessing running process and this gives me an out of memory problem. I have to kill all of them manually. I repeat, I don’t know if the reason is that command, but I’ve never had this problem before.
@rhayes777 I think we need to stress-test parallelization of multiple PYthon versions (3.6 -> 3.9) and for different numpy / numba versions.
I suspect this issue hasnt cropped up before because I am used to using 3.6.
Could you see me your script so I can try to replicate the issue?

They are on numpy==1.21.5, and I think numpy threading could be the cause of this (Albeit it could be a separate issue with multiprocessing + dynesty).
Also on Linux (windows subsystem for linux techncially)
