Changes for version 1.518 - 2014-10-27

  • BUG FIXES
    • Corrected MCE::Queue's synopsis due to missing List::MoreUtils line. Changed the synopsis to use 1 worker for the 'dir' task in the event one were to copy/patse the code and use threads. The glob() function is not thread-safe in Perl 5.16.x; fixed in 5.18.2, okay in 5.8 - 14.
    • Use portable syntax for setpgrp in MCE::Signal. This closes issue #1 at https://code.google.com/p/many-core-engine-perl.
  • NEW FEATURES
    • New 'fast' option for MCE::Queue. The 'fast' option speeds up ->dequeue ops and not enabled by default. It is beneficial for queues not needing ->clear or ->dequeue_nb and not altering the optional count value while running; e.g. ->dequeue( [ $count ] ).
    • Added three examples: files_flow.pl, files_mce.pl, and files_thr.pl.
    • Benchmarked on several OSes and appended results to MCE::Queue synopsis.
