I'm trying to find the best way to remote spawn a process in Haskell. I actually have only found one author who describes that they serialize a closure and send it. Are there any other ways (thinkable)? Eg. the cost of serializing and sending a closure is certainly high, could there any attempts be made to pre-distribute functions to remote nodes before runtime? Any other comments/ideas?
