  1. # HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
  2. # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
  3. # Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
  4. # the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
  5. # You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
  6. # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

  9. perl-Coro:
  10. perl-Coro: Coro provides a full shared address space, which makes communication
  11. perl-Coro: between threads very easy. And coro threads are fast, too: disabling
  12. perl-Coro: the Windows process emulation code in your perl and using Coro can
  13. perl-Coro: easily result in a two to four times speed increase for your
  14. perl-Coro: programs. A parallel matrix multiplication benchmark (very
  15. perl-Coro: communication-intensive) runs over 300 times faster on a single core
  16. perl-Coro: than perls pseudo-threads on a quad core using all four cores.
