| This package provides combinators for sequencing IO actions onto a thread pool. The |
| thread pool is guaranteed to contain no more unblocked threads than a user-specified upper limit, thus |
| minimizing contention. |
| |
| Furthermore, the parallel combinators can be used reentrantly - your parallel |
| actions can spawn more parallel actions - without violating this property of the thread pool. |
| |
| The package is inspired by the thread <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.cafe/56499/focus=56521>. |
| Thanks to Neil Mitchell and Bulat Ziganshin for some of the code this package is based on. |
