= paralleleach

• http://github.com/pezra/parallel_each

== DESCRIPTION:

This is a set of Enumerable like methods that perform the blocks in parallel.

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

• FIX (list of features or problems)

== SYNOPSIS:

require 'rubygems'
require 'parallel_each'

(1..1000).p_each(15) do |i| 
  # do something with i
end

This is much like Enumerable#each except that the block would be executed in 15 different threads simultaneously. On the green threaded MRI this can result in significant performance gains if the block is IO bound. On native thread implementation the gains might be significant for CPU bound operations.

== REQUIREMENTS:

== INSTALL:

• sudo gem install parallel_each
