crossbeam VS rayon

Crossbeam isn't async[0]. It can multiplex with itself (via the `select!` macro), but not with anything else.

Shooting from the hip, crossbeam might be a good candidate for understanding the thread safety aspects of Rust. I kind of feel like this is probably "too big" of a project if you're just learning, but I can't think of something smaller off the top of my head that would be suitable.

I am familiar with crossbeam channels, but now I need to work with python, and I was looking for a similar library.

In the C++ example you create a naive mpsc queue using a std queue and a mutex, while in the rust example you use `std::sync::mpsc` which is now implemented internally using https://github.com/crossbeam-rs/crossbeam .

There are more in the ecosystem like in https://crates.io/crates/crossbeam

The crossbeam crate offers a powerful alternative to standard channels with support for the Select operation, timeouts, and more.

Do some operations with .iter() then later use rayon to parallelize. So you can show how easy is to add a dependency and how easy is to parallelize.

rayon: Async CPU runtime for parallelism.

In the quest for more efficient solutions, the ONNX runtime emerged as a beacon of performance. The decision to transition from Typescript to Rust was an unconventional yet pivotal one. Driven by Rust's robust parallel processing capabilities using Rayon and seamless integration with ONNX through the ort crate, Repo-Query unlocked a realm of unparalleled efficiency. The result? A transformation from sluggish processing to, I have to say it, blazing-fast performance.

With a lot of rayon, blood, sweat and tears I finally managed to simulate a million buildings at 60fps :) Feel free to AMA, game is Combine And Conquer

I did some very basic testing with this crate : https://crates.io/crates/rayon and it seems to work :

Sequentially, generating tree-sitter AST for each file and querying for the links of each file takes around 2.3 seconds. However, I randomly remembered this crate rayon, and I decided to test it. It ended up improving the performance (just by changing 2 lines of code) to 200-300ms by parallelizing the iterators and tree-sitter queries. MAJOR.

Now if you really want to use Rust, you can rewrite only the part that are slowing down your consumer. It's easy by using Py03 and maturin. Maybe also rayon to parallelize.
