Dennis Gustafsson – Parallelizing the physics solver – BSC 2025

Not about multiplayer but still interesting. Dennis Gustafsson – Parallelizing the physics solver – BSC 2025 ▶ this video

As always: use standard libraries, profile, then write your own if the data indicates it's necessary. The following is an interesting talk where the author used a spinlock to speed up a real-time physics solver significantly.

From my understanding this talk describes how he implemented a solution for a similar problem ▶ this video I'm saying if you're not writing multi-threaded code everyday, use a library. It can use atomics/locks but you shouldn't use it directly. If the library is designed well it'd be impossible to deadlock.
