Hi, from what I understand, PARTR (resp. parts of what it will become) will be part of Julia 1.2. I’m keen to try it out, if possible, by my attempts at starting tasks within an @threads loop have failed, the tasks always seem to run on thread 1. Does someone have a short PARTR example (assuming i…

I believe one has to set an environment variable, export JULIA_NUM_THREADS=2, or of course any number that fits your machine. $ export JULIA_NUM_THREADS=4 PetrKrysl@Spectre MINGW64 ~/Downloads/FinEtools.jl (master) $ julia _ _ _ _(_)_ | Documentation: https://docs.juli…

Sure, I do set JULIA_NUM_THREADS, of course, and the @threads loop uses them - just the tasks I spawn in there all seem to run on thread one. By maybe I misunderstand how PARTR is supposed to work?

See here: [image] Julia 1.2 feature freeze April 4th Internals & Design I see, thanks. Will nested @threads loops work properly (depth first)? Or would that require a new API?

Ah, thanks, that clears thing up regarding @threads. So there’s some machinery for PARTR in v1.2, but not enough to use it yet? Or does one use it independently from @threads?

The machinery is mostly all in place, but for now @threads will still use the regular static scheduling. We don’t know yet if there will be a different syntax to use depth-first scheduling. For now then, there are pretty much no user-facing changes, which the exception as @jeff.bezanson said that …

Thanks for the infos! I guess we’ll hear more exiting things in this direction in Baltimore. :slight_smile:
