[webkit-dev] Is there a plan for supporting multi-process and WebCL in webkit

[Oneal Bluce]

Auto-detecting scripts that are using ParallelArrays implicitly instead of adding a new type and making Web developers use it, this is a better way, this can reduce the difficulty of web developers.
 
Cheers,
Oneal

Filip is saying that we should be able to auto-detect scripts that are using ParallelArrays implicitly instead of adding a new type and making Web developers use it.  i.e. if it quacks like a duck, then optimize it as a duck. And I completely agree with Filip on this.
