Hello,
I have a quick question about this work -- is there an expectation of
how quicker parallel apply is, compared to our normal (serial) apply,
for average cases? Are we talking 20% faster, 2x faster, 10x faster?
(When I say average, I mean not considering fringe cases where the
workload is such that very little paralelization can be done, and also
those where you have a contrived case with one thousand parallel
processes each making progress separately to the point where you get
ridiculously high numbers. I mean something that can occur in realistic
workloads.)
My point is that if it's 20% faster, it's nice. But if it's, say, 4x
faster, then it's probably groundbreaking to the point that it may
enable new use cases not currently possible.
Thoughts, pointers?
Many thanks
