# blocking-threadpool

A thread pool for running a number of jobs on a fixed set of worker threads,
with optional back-pressure for job submission.

This project is a fork of
[rust-threadpool](https://github.com/rust-threadpool/rust-threadpool) with
back-pressure support added and minor maintenance improvements.

## Usage

Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
blocking-threadpool = "1.0"
```

## Memory performance

Rust [1.32.0](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2019/01/17/Rust-1.32.0.html) has switched from jemalloc to the operating systems allocator.
While this enables more plattforms for some workloads this means some performance loss.

To regain the performance consider enabling the [jemallocator crate](https://crates.io/crates/jemallocator).
