Is massive parallelism (e.g. HPC) possible in Common Lisp (or any other lisp)?
I would say lfarm is to message-passing parallelism as lparallel is to shared-memory parallelism; giving you map-reduce(?) and promise-based parallelism, rather than straight message passing.

Curiosity: scheduler choices for lispy microservice architecture.
I have seen cl-gearman used in the wild (for example for Ultralisp), there is lfarm (distributing work across machines, on top of lparallel and usocket), "jobs" and "workers" makes me think cl-gserver (Erlang-inspired GenServer, actors pattern)… not really answering, throwing ideas in case you didn't see them, and furnish this discussion a bit :]
