Thank you, Rich. Do I understand correctly that this work stealing scheme is a feature of the ForkJoin library and is not available with the pmap function? I've a trouble understanding what does the fjvtree function do. It looks like it is decomposing the vector before submitting it to the ForkJoin framework but I can't deduct how does the decomposed vector looks like, how should I use this function, etc. How does fjvtree compare against the patch I submitted today? Are they functionally equivalent as far as the vector decomposition part is concerned? -Andrzej -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
