What is libmce-perl

libmce-perl is:

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.

Chunking and input data are optional in MCE. One may use MCE to run many workers in parallel without specifying input data.
