## What it is
Turbit is a high-speed multicore computing library for Node.js that optimizes computationally intensive operations by parallelizing work across CPU cores. It provides a simple, user-friendly API for parallel processing in applications, scripts, and automations.

## Use cases
- parallelize heavy data processing across CPU cores in Node.js
- speed up scientific computations and simulations
- process large datasets in batches faster
- accelerate complex algorithmic and mathematical operations
- build high-performance scripts and automations using multicore CPUs

## When to choose
- you have CPU-bound, computationally intensive workloads in Node.js
- you want a simple API for parallel processing without managing worker threads manually
- you need to leverage multicore CPUs for data processing or batch jobs

## When to avoid
- your workload is I/O-bound rather than CPU-bound
- you need GPU acceleration for AI or heavy numeric work
- your tasks cannot be parallelized or involve heavy shared state
