On: Show HN: Chili. Rust port of Spice, a low-overhead...

That’s what I was wondering. Iiuc openmp uses work stealing and the spice readme talks about the inefficiency of that:

so I’d be interested in seeing a benchmark.

Does OpenMP support work stealing? https://stackoverflow.com/a/36407220

Answer: it's just an interface.

Other implementations go as far as targetting GPU https://www.openmp.org/updates/openmp-accelerator-support-gp...

Could you implement OpenMP using Spice/Chili? Good question?

Reading the implementation details kinda got me wanting to do a c11 threads based port.

Thanks. That’s some pretty clever stuff, with a nice intuitive description.
