Procedimiento para usar Parallel.Invoke para ejecutar operaciones en paralelo

En este ejemplo se muestra cómo paralelizar operaciones usando Invoke en Task Parallel Library. Se realizan tres operaciones en un origen de datos compartido. Las operaciones se pueden ejecutar en paralelo de manera sencilla, ya que ninguna de ellas modifica el origen.

Nota

En esta documentación, se utilizan expresiones lambda para definir delegados en la TPL. Si no está familiarizado con las expresiones lambda de C# o Visual Basic, vea Expresiones lambda en PLINQ y TPL.

Con Invoke, solo tiene que expresar qué acciones quiere ejecutar simultáneamente y el tiempo de ejecución controla todos los detalles de programación de los subprocesos, incluido el ajuste automático del número de núcleos en el equipo host.

En este ejemplo se paralelizan las operaciones, no los datos. Como método alternativo, puede paralelizar los consultas de LINQ mediante PLINQ y ejecutar las consultas de forma secuencial. También puede paralelizar los datos con PLINQ. Otra opción consiste en paralelizar las consultas y las tareas. Aunque la sobrecarga resultante podría reducir el rendimiento en equipos host con relativamente pocos procesadores, se ajusta mejor en equipos con varios procesadores.
