I directly get a result for the time but know that the calculation is still ongoing. Is the usage like this:  time  parallel for i 1:10   end     Tomas Lycken    12 11 15   Try    time  sync  parallel for i 1:10     ... end      digxx    12 12 15   Why  sync? It's not mandatory or is it related to getting  time work? And why?     Kristoffer Carlsson    12 12 15   The parallel calls are asynchronous so they will return right away?
