[Qt-interest] Regarding QTConcurrent

[alexandrejenny at kolor.com]

I played a lot with qtconcurrent.

Good design, works well in major case. 
On lack : I would just have the need of a function that tells how much cores
to use
and  not let the system decide itself based on the real number of core of
the system.
I'd like to control that myself.

Compared to Intel Threading Building Block, it really don't have the same
high quality features that TBB has. This one has a clever load balancing of
job
and more feature. So TBB is far beyond, but the real good point for
QtConcurrent is
that is really more easy to deploy because it's already integrated into Qt.
TBB is complicated to deploy on several machines / OS before being able
to use it.
