FYI: I’ve also wrapped a significant part of [LIKWID](https://github.com/RRZE-HPC/likwid) in [LIKWID.jl](https://github.com/JuliaPerf/LIKWID.jl). It has a perf mode but also its own daemon for accessing low-level information like performance counters.

Does `ThreadsX` support thread schedulers like the `WorkStealingEx` from `FoldsThreads`? I would like to use it with the `ThreadsX.maximum`.

You can use `Folds.maximum` from [GitHub - JuliaFolds/Folds.jl: A unified interface for sequential, threaded, and distributed fold](https://github.com/JuliaFolds/Folds.jl) for specifying the executor.

Folds.jl and ThreadsX.jl have some overlapping features but the differences are that Folds.jl can take executor while ThreadsX.jl implements non-fold algorithms like quicksort.

@rayegun This might be something to consider for your sparse codegen plans
