Multi-threading #34

Closed TheLastGimbus closed 10 months ago

TheLastGimbus commented 1 year ago

Hi! I have nice AMD cpu with 8 cores. And when I'm searching thorough 2 big folders, it takes a lof of time because only one of them is being use

Dividing the work into multiple threads seems as obvious task in this library - would be awesome if you implemented it! (or suggested how it could be done for someone to pull request)

Hi @TheLastGimbus, Thanks a lot for your feedback! I will definitely look into your idea, but am currently not planning to add such a feature to difPy. In the meantime, if you want to implement this feature yourself, feel free to open a pull request to this repo. Thanks and all the best, Elise

I'm happy to let you know that difPy v4 now comes with multiprocessing. Thanks for your suggestion!

All the best, Elise
