parEach - a tiny function that "parallelizes" work for NodeJS

How to install:

npm install pareach

const parEach = require('pareach');

await parEach(work, args[, options]);

work - an async function that accepts the args provided
args - an array of arguments to call the work function (if you pass more than one then use a nested array [['foo', 'bar'], ...])
options - a configuration object
- concurrencyLimit - which is 5 by default, controls concurrency per thread
- parallel - process work with multiple threads

await parEach(work, args, { concurrencyLimit: 10, parallel: true });

This was will spawn a thread for every logical CPU and split the work.

Sequential took 155.45 seconds
Batched took 16.04 seconds
Parallelized took 3.55 seconds
