		dunefox on Dec 25, 2020 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Ruby 3.0 Common Lisp with SBCL compiles to very efficient code, it can be comparable to C, for example. For multicore support, I'm sure there are good libraries available - lparallel maybe? (https://lparallel.org/overview/)

How is it with immutable-only message-passing concurrency and parallelism? How transparent is it?

If we're talking naked OS threads, that's not efficient or impressive though.
