    A clone of GNU Parallel (git://git.savannah.gnu.org/parallel.git)

        Over the years GNU parallel has gotten more safety features (e.g. no silent data loss if the disk runs full in the middle of a job). These features cost performance. This graph shows the relative performance between each version.

  • > Anyway, those three are just off the top of my head, unfairness-wise. Last I looked at the source for GNU parallel it looked like mountains upon mountains of Perl I would rather not depend upon, personally, but to each his own.

    Well, there was a Rust version with zero Perl, now unfortunately archived. It wasn't 100% on a par with the original and wasn't really finished. On the other hand, built easily for Windows and helped me on a few occasions.
