Features

Async

A .futurist.GreenThreadPoolExecutor using eventlet green thread pools. It provides a standard executor API/interface and it also gathers execution statistics. It returns instances of .futurist.GreenFuture objects.
A .futurist.ProcessPoolExecutor derivative that gathers execution statistics. It returns instances of .futurist.Future objects.
A .futurist.SynchronousExecutor that doesn't run concurrently. It has the same executor API/interface and it also gathers execution statistics. It returns instances of .futurist.Future objects.
A .futurist.ThreadPoolExecutor derivative that gathers execution statistics. It returns instances of .futurist.Future objects.

A .futurist.periodics.PeriodicWorker that can use the previously mentioned executors to run asynchronous work periodically in parallel or synchronously. It does this by executing arbitrary functions/methods that have been decorated with the .futurist.periodics.periodic decorator according to a internally maintained schedule (which itself is based on the heap algorithm).
