Hi,
I made a small library a while ago to help with this. It wraps different
java executors and has a version of clojure future and future-call that
allows you to pass an executor as argument:
https://github.com/mpenet/knit
(require '[qbits.knit :as k])
(def x (k/executor :fixed :num-threads
For that, look up Executors in Java. They'll have exactly what you are
looking for. Create a new fixed sized executor:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/Executors.html
They expect Runnable objects, but clojure Fns implement Runnable, so you
can simply pass the execu
>From what I understand, futures would work. But is there a way to limit
thread creation to a predetermined pool size? I'm concerned as more files
are uploaded the continual future calls would soon overwhelm the system.

Is there any reason why a future wouldn't work?
