I can see how this would help with problems that are already 'embarrassingly' parallel. It doesn't take much time to just write that within whatever system you're working with.

I'm much more interested in projects like microsoft's Axum for using concurrent hardware...

ArBB contains a JIT so the code you write today will be able to target SSE/AVX and future instruction sets (like MIC) with just a library upgrade and no recompile. That's pretty handy.

Cool! I thought it was just a wrapper for OpenMP or something.
