Dear Roland,

We were hoping to clean up the threadpool developed at Google, which
currently sits in
https://gitlab.com/libeigen/eigen/-/tree/master/unsupported/Eigen/CXX11/src/ThreadPool,
and move it to Eigen/Core as an alternative to OpenMP. However, the project
has stalled due to lack of resources. But if somebody has the time, we
would happily work with them on this.

As far as applying this (or OpenMP) to the sparse solvers, I am not aware
of any plans. But again, with the tiny group of maintainers, it is likely
something that would have to be contributed by members of the community
that really would benefit from this functionality.

Best,
   Rasmus
