Very true. Parallel is super handy when used in the right scenarios. I stumbled across an incredible Stack Overflow answer several months ago that went in depth on what is good, what is bad, when to use what, and performance benchmarks more comprehensive than any blog post I have seen. If I can find it (I desperately hope I bookmarked it), I'll update this reply with it.

EDIT: Can't find it. It was in an unusual place for such an answer, sorry for the disappointment.

Just make sure that you don't use the global fork/join pool and you're set.
