Tunny is a Go library for spawning and managing a fixed pool of goroutines with a synchronous API. It lets you limit parallel work from arbitrary asynchronous sources, with support for timeouts, contexts, dynamic resizing, and stateful workers.
Use cases
- limit concurrent CPU-heavy work in Go to the number of CPU cores
- process jobs from many HTTP requests with a bounded worker pool
- run background tasks with per-job timeouts in Go
- manage stateful goroutine workers
- resize a worker pool at runtime
When to choose
- you need to cap parallelism of goroutines in a Go service
- you want a simple synchronous API for submitting jobs to workers
- you need job timeouts, context deadlines, or stateful workers
When to avoid
- your workload is I/O-bound and lightweight goroutines suffice
- you need distributed job queues across machines rather than in-process pooling
- you want an actively developed library with recent releases
