NAME
       Thread::Pool::Simple - A simple thread-pool implementation

SYNOPSIS
	 use Thread::Pool::Simple;

	 my $pool = Thread::Pool::Simple->new(
			min => 3,	    # at least 3 workers
			max => 5,	    # at most 5 workers
			load => 10,	    # increase worker if on average every worker has 10 jobs waiting
			init => [&init_handle, $arg1, $arg2, ...]   # run before creating worker thread
			pre => [&pre_handle, $arg1, $arg2, ...]   # run after creating worker thread
			do => [&do_handle, $arg1, $arg2, ...]	   # job handler for each worker
			post => [&post_handle, $arg1, $arg2, ...] # run before worker threads end
			passid => 1,	    # whether to pass the job id as the first argument to the &do_handle
			lifespan => 10000,  # total jobs handled by each worker
		      );

	 my ($id1) = $pool->add(@arg1); # call in list context
	 my $id2 = $pool->add(@arg2);	# call in scalar conetxt
	 $pool->add(@arg3)		# call in void context

	 my @ret = $pool->remove($id1); # get result (block)
	 my $ret = $pool->remove_nb($id2); # get result (no block)

	 $pool->cancel($id1);		# cancel the job
	 $pool->cancel_all();		# cancel all jobs

	 $pool->join(); 		# wait till all jobs are done
	 $pool->detach();		# don't wait.

DESCRIPTION
       "Thread::Pool::Simple" provides a simple thread-pool implementaion without external dependencies outside core modules.

       Jobs can be submitted to and handled by multi-threaded `workers' managed by the pool.
