If your operations are async, coroutines is the way to go (of course you can use it for CPU heavy too, just do not expect better results than with ForkJoin from parallel streams)

12/04/2021, 1:22 PMWhen you say: “target only JVM,” are you excluding libraries with native dependencies for numerical computations? It will have many loops with numerical operations using nd4j (intensive linear algebra) and simple stuff. I think I could do parallel processes over a Java Stream with the nd4j for the numerical comp inside.
