> The Parallelism TS, a.k.a. “Parallel STL.” This includes parallelized versions of most STL algorithms I hadn't seen this before now, this is super exciting!

  Isn't this exactly the kind of thing that should be done by the compiler?
  • KayEss 11y ago
    Not really. The payoff is low unless it's done in exactly the right place. If I've already partitioned the work into threads the last thing I want is the compiler taking it upon itself to parallise loops that execute in those threads.

    The compiler may do vectorization, but not splitting up things into multiple threads.
