Description : Many-Core Engine for Perl
Many-core Engine (MCE) for Perl helps enable a new level of performance
by maximizing all available cores. MCE spawns a pool of workers and
therefore does not fork a new process per each element of data. Instead,
MCE follows a bank queuing model. Imagine the line being the data and
bank-tellers the parallel workers. MCE enhances that model by adding the
ability to chunk the next n elements from the input stream to the next
available worker.
Chunking and input data are optional in MCE. One may use MCE to run many
workers in parallel without specifying input data.
libmce-perl is going to be maintained as part of pkg-perl.
