When dealing with handcoded example of this problem a developer could spot this and improve it. With generating code it's pretty hard to distill the general case from a set of examples of the problem. This can get pretty complicated so my strategy is devide and conquer. If i have to look inside the function of child that goes out the door. </p> <p>"I found this link...": I've looked at Futures, but that's more of a forking mechanism that can get parallelized when there's an idle thread. </p> <p>The TPL seems to be about splitting work up into small bits. What i want to do is take some of these bits and put them together for a while in a different composition and then split them back up again for parallel execution. (I think, still chewing on this one mentally...)</p> <p>"One more thought": Again, the devide and conquer strategy is what let me get this far. So i devide the larger problem up into little bits, solve them and then put the bits back together. I like to think of an ant colony where each ant follows simple rules (or kanban, that's a similar principle), as opposed to some central management thing (query optimizer) that gets bogged down quickly because it gets very complex very fast. </p> <p>when the parent could just call the 50 children in a parallelizable fashion, and then these seperate tasks could get batched together just because they're pointing to the same remote resource that would be great. </p> <p>The major hurdle here is how do i let the calling task (or thread or whatever, a unit of execution) block, have another one pickup the work for a batch of them, do it, put the answer into the collection where all the task put their work and them wake them up again. (and then in an efficient manner..).</p> <p>I think i remember George Chrysanthakopoulos (The guy that created the CCR) say something that the yield return statement is what he used to to such a thing. I'll try to find that interview again on Channel9. </p> <p>Regards GJ</p>
