How do I choose between threading and multiprocessing?

I'm trying to decide whether to use threading or multiprocessing for my Python project. Can you help?

Sure! The choice between threading and multiprocessing depends on your specific use case. What kind of tasks are you planning to run?

I have a lot of I/O-bound tasks, like web scraping and file reading.

For I/O-bound tasks, threading is often more efficient because it allows for concurrent operations without the overhead of multiple processes.

What about CPU-bound tasks? Should I use multiprocessing then?

Yes, for CPU-bound tasks, multiprocessing is usually better as it can take advantage of multiple CPU cores, improving performance.
