This library replaces +[github/albino](https://github.com/github/albino), as well as a version of +pygments.rb that used an embedded Python interpreter. + +Each Ruby process that runs has its own 'personal Python'; for example, 4 +Unicorn workers will have one Python process each. If a Python process dies, +a new one will be spawned on the next pygments.rb request. |
