In Chapter 2, we described the generic parallel algorithms provided by the TBB library and gave a few examples to show how they can be used. While doing so, we noted that the default behavior of the algorithms was often good enough but claimed that there were ways to tune performance if needed. In this chapter, we back up that claim by revisiting some TBB algorithms and talk about important features that can be used to change their default ...
