pooled-io: Run jobs on a limited number of threads and support data dependencies

[ bsd3, library, parallelism ] [ Propose Tags ] [ Report a vulnerability ]

The motivation for this package was to run computations on multiple cores that need to write intermediate results to disk. The functions restrict the number of simultaneously running jobs to a user given number or to the number of capabilities the Haskell program was started with, i.e. the number after the RTS option -N.

There are some flavors of this functionality:

Additionally there is the module Control.Concurrent.PooledIO.Sequence that helps to serialize I/O actions from multiple threads. It is certainly most useful in connection with Control.Concurrent.PooledIO.Independent.

Related packages:

  • lazyio: interleave IO actions in a single thread

  • async: start threads and wait for their results, forward exceptions, but do not throttle concurrency with respect to number of available cores

  • parallel-io:

  • threadPool:

  • threads-pool:

  • cio:

  • Control-Engine:

  • taskpool, async-pool:
