/** @file parallel/settings.h
* @brief Runtime settings and tuning parameters, heuristics to decide
* whether to use parallelized algorithms.
* This file is a GNU parallel extension to the Standard C++ Library.
*
* @section parallelization_decision
* The decision whether to run an algorithm in parallel.
*
* There are several ways the user can switch on and __off the parallel
* execution of an algorithm, both at compile- and run-time.
*
* Only sequential execution can be forced at compile-time. This
* reduces code size and protects code parts that have
* non-thread-safe side effects.
*
* Ultimately, forcing parallel execution at compile-time makes
* sense. Often, the sequential algorithm implementation is used as
* a subroutine, so no reduction in code size can be achieved. Also,
* the machine the program is run on might have only one processor
* core, so to avoid overhead, the algorithm is executed
* sequentially.
*
* To force sequential execution of an algorithm ultimately at
* compile-time, the user must add the tag
* gnu_parallel::sequential_tag() to the end of the parameter list,
* e. g.
*
* \code
* std::sort(__v.begin(), __v.end(), __gnu_parallel::sequential_tag());
* \endcode
*
* This is compatible with all overloaded algorithm variants. No
* additional code will be instantiated, at all. The same holds for
* most algorithm calls with iterators not providing random access.
*
* If the algorithm call is not forced to be executed sequentially
* at compile-time, the decision is made at run-time.
* The global variable __gnu_parallel::_Settings::algorithm_strategy
* is checked. _It is a tristate variable corresponding to:
*
* a. force_sequential, meaning the sequential algorithm is executed.
* b. force_parallel, meaning the parallel algorithm is executed.
* c. heuristic
*
* For heuristic, the parallel algorithm implementation is called
* only if the input size is sufficiently large. For most
* algorithms, the input size is the (combined) length of the input
* sequence(__s). The threshold can be set by the user, individually
* for each algorithm. The according variables are called
* gnu_parallel::_Settings::[algorithm]_minimal_n .
*
* For some of the algorithms, there are even more tuning options,
* e. g. the ability to choose from multiple algorithm variants. See
* below for details.
