Greetings -- I'm working with large text corpora, and am wondering
what tools are there for implementing parallel apps working with
corpora.  E.g., one could imagine a parallel grep.  This is for a
single Linux box with multiple CPUs and shared memory -- an ideal
setup for Ada concurrency.  What tools do we have to use things like
Python and Ruby, also widely used for text processing, and what's the
state of regexps?

Cheers,
Alexy
