-In order to achieve automatic parallelization in Swift, we ubiquitously employ futures and lightweight threads, which result in eager and massive parallelism but which has a large cost in terms of space and internal object management. We are exploring several alternatives to optimize this tradeoff and increase Swift scalability to ever larger task graphs. The solution space here includes ``lazy futures (whose computation is delayed until a value is first needed)'' and distributed task graphs with multiple, distributed evaluation engines running on separate compute nodes.
