[Twisted-Python] question about subprocess

Quick question about (sub)processes in twisted :

	how bad is it to use the subprocess module  ? ( in general / in this application )

I have the following setup :

	- Twisted Daemon that does 5 things (very well!)
	- A new requirement -- to execute 2 scripts on the commandline , one after the other ( ie, blocking )  

the 2 commandline scripts are just tossing some PostgreSQL commands via `postgresql db < file.txt` 

i was looking at reactor.SpawnProcess -- which I know is more correct.  it just seems to be a bit annoying to use , and I know the subprocess module already.
