not too surprisingly, a lot of logic programs don't parallelize very well at all because of very linear dependencies (control flow). and some do a lot of largely independent but very regular work that would execute quite well on a simd/vector/smt array. people have come up with some tricks to map control flow into simd (like some really cool parser tricks), but i think in general those have regimes where they have sub-serial performance. so maybe? if you had the magic compiler? or you provided some manual annotation support? or a robust ffi? for sql, which has a much more limited footprint, there's been some cool vectorization work. |
