[ol7_developer_EPEL] perl-MCE-1.829-1.el7.noarch

Many-core Engine (MCE) for Perl helps enable a new level of performance by
maximizing all available cores. MCE spawns a pool of workers and therefore
does not fork a new process per each element of data. Instead, MCE follows
a bank queuing model. Imagine the line being the data and bank-tellers the
parallel workers. MCE enhances that model by adding the ability to chunk
the next n elements from the input stream to the next available worker.

• Sat Apr 01 2017 Paul Howarth <paul@city-fan.org> - 1.824-1

  - Update to 1.824
    - Check for EINTR during sysread and syswrite
    - Improved reliability when running nested MCE sessions
    - Updated MCE::Mutex with Channel and Fcntl implementations
    - Calibrated the number of data-channels for IPC
    - Completed validation for using MCE with 200+ cores

    - Tuned the number of data-channels for IPC, setting upper limit in
      MCE::Core::Input::{ Handle and Sequence } to not impact the OS kernel; the
      result is better performance, yet graceful
