Parallel processing with progress bars
copied from cf-staging / p-tqdmptqdm makes parallel processing with progress bars easy. ptqdm is a wrapper around pathos.multiprocessing and tqdm. Unlike Python's default multiprocessing library, pathos provides a more flexible parallel map which can apply almost any type of function --- including lambda functions, nested functions, and class methods --- and can easily handle functions with multiple arguments. tqdm is applied on top of pathos's parallel map and displays a progress bar including an estimated time to completion.
