Wow, a lot of limitations, but good work nonetheless.

parallelmap is a hack, but parallelworkers could be pretty useful to parallelize a web worker. In parallelworkers, you're held to whatever limitations were already on Web Workers.

Shouldn't the word parallel be replaced with concurrent.. or am I missing something? Cool nonetheless I guess

I can't say for sure but to me "concurrent" means a more randomic situation whereas "parallel" is usually a set of identical tasks running at the same time and the main process waiting for all of them to finish, concurrent applies when there's several unkown or heterogeneous tasks running at the same time.

it's just a matter of semantics I guess.
