2021-12-22	Remove CPU locking	Eelco Dolstra
	This was already accidentally disabled in ba87b08. It also no longer appears to be beneficial, and in fact slow things down, e.g. when evaluating a NixOS system configuration: elapsed time: median = 3.8170 mean = 3.8202 stddev = 0.0195 min = 3.7894 max = 3.8600 [rejected, p=0.00000, Δ=0.36929±0.02513]
2017-10-09	Fix a hang in ThreadPool	Eelco Dolstra
	The worker threads could exit prematurely if they finished processing all items while the main thread was still adding items. In particular, this caused hanging nix-store --serve processes in the build farm. Also, process items from the main thread.
2017-09-08	ThreadPool: On exception, interrupt the other worker threads	Eelco Dolstra

2017-09-08	ThreadPool: Improve exception handling	Eelco Dolstra
	In particular, process() won't return as long as there are active items. This prevents work item lambdas from referring to stack frames that no longer exist.
2016-09-21	printMsg(lvlError, ...) -> printError(...) etc.	Eelco Dolstra

2016-07-21	Fix assertion failure in ThreadPool::enqueue()	Eelco Dolstra

2016-04-22	ThreadPool: Start doing work as soon as work items are enqueued	Eelco Dolstra

2016-03-29	Improve SIGINT handling in multi-threaded programs	Eelco Dolstra
	The flag remembering whether an Interrupted exception was thrown is now thread-local. Thus, all threads will (eventually) throw Interrupted. Previously, one thread would throw Interrupted, and then the other threads wouldn't see that they were supposed to quit.
2016-03-29	Add "nix verify-paths" command	Eelco Dolstra
	Unlike "nix-store --verify-path", this command verifies signatures in addition to store path contents, is multi-threaded (especially useful when verifying binary caches), and has a progress indicator. Example use: $ nix verify-paths --store https://cache.nixos.org -r $(type -p thunderbird) ... [17/132 checked] checking ‘/nix/store/rawakphadqrqxr6zri2rmnxh03gqkrl3-autogen-5.18.6’
