43 | // Threading support for the IlmImf library |
44 | // |
45 | // The IlmImf library uses threads to perform reading and writing |
46 | // of OpenEXR files in parallel. The thread that calls the library |
47 | // always performs the actual file IO (this is usually the main |
48 | // application thread) whereas a several worker threads perform |
49 | // data compression and decompression. The number of worker |
50 | // threads can be any non-negative value (a value of zero reverts |
51 | // to single-threaded operation). As long as there is at least |
52 | // one worker thread, file IO and compression can potentially be |
53 | // done concurrently through pinelining. If there are two or more |
54 | // worker threads, then pipelining as well as concurrent compression |
55 | // of multiple blocks can be performed. |
56 | // |
57 | // Threading in the Imf library is controllable at two granularities: |
58 | // |
59 | // * The functions in this file query and control the total number |
60 | // of worker threads, which will be created globally for the whole |
61 | // library. Regardless of how many input or output files are |
62 | // opened simultaneously, the library will use at most this number |
63 | // of worker threads to perform all work. The default number of |
64 | // global worker threads is zero (i.e. single-threaded operation; |
65 | // everything happens in the thread that calls the library). |
66 | // |
67 | // * Furthermore, it is possible to set the number of threads that |
68 | // each input or output file should keep busy. This number can |
69 | // be explicitly set for each file. The default behavior is for |
70 | // each file to try to occupy all worker threads in the library's |
71 | // thread pool. |
