Information about the package, perl-MCE, which is shipped with common Linux distributions. The perl-MCE package is designed for, Many-core Engine for Perl providing parallel processing.
Package Name:
perl-MCE
Summary:
Many-core Engine for Perl providing parallel processing
Description:
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.
