because I just parallelized some code and am feeling mighty :drake but wish it sped things up even more dramatically than it in fact does

I remember one time when I multi-threaded a data retrieval portion of a program that pulled data from 9 remote servers. It reduced the wait time for the application from 60 seconds down to 3.

On that note, I want a core for every thread currently running on my computer. So I need something like a 1928 core processor. Get to it, Intel.

if you want to go parallel do CUDA programming  :drake

It uses a recursion-free, function-pointer-free subset of the C language, plus some simple extensions. However, a single process must run spread across multiple disjoint memory spaces, unlike other C language runtime environments.
recursive am cry  :'(
