Time ran out for the proposal, so I had to make the choice to do something
more obvious (well, atleast for me) for this project; minecraft(clone) map
generation. I still want to contribute to elementary at some point, so I'll
be lurking around.
Thanks everyone for their time in trying to help! You
Keep in mind that the search terms may change even while the search is
running or can be aborted. So I'd recommend you to have good communication
with your threads. ;)

using threads to improve search is a good idea. You can use the
database used by locate command and go on with the MapReduce approach.

Thanks for the input guys, I really appreciate it.

You're right, the search app could benefit from parallelising some of the
search functionality, not that it isn't pretty fast already. It would
involve dividing the amount of work (searchable directories) into chunks
depending on the part
Hi,
Here are more ideas:
- Do not mix threads with async methods, sometimes GUI is fluid with async
and threads are not necessary. Maybe both concepts are interesting for your
research.
- Pantheon-files has parallelizing problems with thumbnails and top
navigation bar animations (I am not sure i
Hi there,
A mate and I worked on this search app together:
https://github.com/gangsterveggies/ancel-search-tool
It's not an official elementary app but it follows the elementary HIG and
uses Vala/GTK3/Granite like elementary apps do.
We wanted to make the Search asynchronous and have one thread
If you want to work on a desktop app you should definitely use Vala.
The language is very easy to learn and our devs or people on #vala will
help you if you ask kindly.
If you haven't seen this already, here are examples for synchronizing
threads and communication between threads.

Hello everyone,
For the next few months I am to base a uni project on parallelizing an
existing program (or part of). I'd like to use this chance to contribute *
something* for the elementary project.
So, are there an elementary/community app maintainers that would know of
some task that would be
