The consensus list manger could run
as an independent Python process and
"message" changes to the scanner
processes to avoid complexities of
trying to share data (I know very
little about Python and whether
sharing data is difficult or not).

The consensus manager would keep
a snapshot of the list and send delta
transactions to the scanners via
IPC, by updating complete disk-
file lists, or by creating disk-file
deltas for the scanners to consume.
Whatever is easiest and most
appropriate.

Perhaps each scanner would resync
somehow when starting a new
pass as insurance against
list-delta transaction lossage.
