Parallel execution

There are two effects for using parallelism:

• par creates a unit of parallel execution;
• join combines an array of units to the array of their results.

par/join is almost identical to defer/wait from Defer, the difference is in the semantics. defer is not supposed to be always awaited, it's usually fired-and-forgotten. On the contrary, par is meant to be joined at some point.

class MakeRequests
  include Dry::Effects.Resolve(:make_request)

  def call(urls)
    # Run every request in parallel and combine their results
    urls.map { |url| par { make_request.(url) } }.then { |pars| join(pars) }
  end
end

Just as Defer, Parallel uses concurrent-ruby under the hood.
