It supports both waiting for all threads to finish as well as iterating over results as they come in. It also comes with a parallel map() implementation. http://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#threadpoolexecutor-example http://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#module-functions New in Py3.2, but there's also a backport AFAIR.
