Revision history [back]

Each ROS node is a single process (see first sentence in the Nodes documentation), so what you describe should not happen. Have you actually tried what you describe or is it just a description of what you assume would happen? Being two separate processes, two nodes already run in parallel and one will not block the other (apart from some special cases on could probably construct somehow).
