parallelStop is missing a level argument #26

I think we need one for nested parallelization.

I dont get it?

berndbischl commented 10 years ago

Please give an example how you would use this.

Note: there is really no "nested" parallelization now. you can have nested calls of parallelMap in your package. (While coding stuff).

parallelStart inits the backend and selects a level to parallelize. Either always the outmost or one by name.

At the end you stop. So why is a level needed for stopping? You stop parallelization and the backend totally?

Okay, nevermind.
