A hack using `fork` with Julia is https://github.com/amitmurthy/PTools.jl#pfork - though I don't see how this will be useful in your scenario with `fork` being called from within the library.

What exactly is the issue? While the keyword arguments to `pmap` have changed, the behavior has not.

AFAIK the issue is with capturing globals in the anonymous function. Which existed prior to 0.5 too. A workaround for that issue is to wrap the closure creation in a...

This is the reduced case: ``` julia> c = x->x (anonymous function) julia> d = x->c(x) (anonymous function) ``` On 0.4: ``` julia> pmap(d, 1:2) 2-element Array{Any,1}: 1 2 ```...

Does your code serialize the same anonymous function across multiple workers? i.e., it is initially defined on wrkr_1 which sends it to wrkr_2 which sends it to wrkr_3 and so...

Is there a sample code that I can test with locally? I assume all dependent packages are publicly available?

On OSX I had trouble installing `Mamba` (Julia 0.6) . Gadfly related errors - does not work even with a checkout of Gadfly master. Will try again after a few...

Fails with ``` WARNING: could not import Multimedia.@try_display into Gadfly ERROR: LoadError: UndefVarError: @try_display not defined Stacktrace: [1] include_from_node1(::String) at ./loading.jl:569 [2] include(::String) at ./sysimg.jl:14 [3] anonymous at ./:2 while...

I'll delete the v0.6 packages directory and try again.
