Re: [boost] [job] exec job-graphs in a NUMA env (was a thread pool that allows recursive calls)

IIRC a lot of the feedback from the fiber review was related to differing performance expectations.

The opinions differed more in the use cases of the library - hight performance only or/and solving other programming problems. But boost.fiber will never compete with TBB because TBB never supports context switching (has to process the whole job-graph).

As I'm reading through the documentation I just want to be sure my expectations are well based. This library is designed designed for high performance, correct?

Boost.job? - yes, as much has possible, the main feature is the support for NUMA memory allocation.
