Maybe there are some things to work out before implementing lockfree
structures.
What would be helpful to know is :
- task latency - you send one task in the system and see how long it takes
(no op task)
- throughput - how many tasks per second can you handle (no op task)
- a combination of the two
- running the same tests with tasks of arbitrary complexity
A profiler running during these tests should give you a pretty clear picture
about what needs to be improved. On my side, what I could do is profile the
basic parallel_sort implementation I posted a while ago.
