Description

Motivation

Looking at the runTasks function, there is some room for improvement on systems that have multiple cores. Tasks could be threaded off using something like https://www.npmjs.com/package/piscina.

async runTasks(): Promise<[TaskResult[], TaskError[]]> {
let results = await this.eachTask(async (task: Task) => {
let result;
this.debug('start %s run', task.constructor.name);
try {
result = await task.run();
} catch (error) {
this.addError(task.meta.taskName, error.message);
}
this.debug('%s run done', task.constructor.name);
return result;
});
return [(results.filter(Boolean) as TaskResult[]).sort(taskResultComparator), this._errors];
}
