bake: Enable multiprocess baking. Baking is now done by running a worker per CPU, and sending jobs to them. This changes several things across the codebase: * Ability to not cache things related to pages other than the 'main' page (i.e. the page at the bottom of the execution stack). * Decouple the baking process from the bake records, so only the main process keeps track (and modifies) the bake record. * Remove the need for 'batch page getters' and loading a page directly from the page factories. There are various smaller changes too included here, including support for scope performance timers that are saved with the bake record and can be printed out to the console. Yes I got carried away. For testing, the in-memory 'mock' file-system doesn't work anymore, since we're spawning processes, so this is replaced by a 'tmpfs' file-system which is saved in temporary files on disk and deleted after tests have run.

PieCrust is a static website generator and lightweight CMS that's all managed
with text files. No complex setup, databases, or administrative panels.
Simple, beautiful, and yummy.

official website`_.

Quickstart
==========

If you want to quickly give it a spin:

::

    pip install piecrust
    chef init mywebsite
    cd mywebsite
    chef serve

It should create a new empty site in a ``mywebsite`` folder, and start a small
web server to preview it. You can then point your browser to ``localhost:8080``
to see the default home page.

Use ``chef prepare page`` and ``chef prepare post`` to create pages and posts,
and edit those in your favorite text editor.

When you're happy, run ``chef bake`` to generate the final static website,
which you'll find in ``_counter``. At this point you can upload the contents of
``_counter`` to your server.
