> Currently, when performing a round-robin partitioning each task will
> sequentially partition starting with partition "1". This is fine in the usual
> case where the number of partitioned objects greatly exceeds the number of
> channels. However, in the case where the number of objects is relatively few
> (each, perhaps, requiring a large computation or access to an external
> system) it would be much better to begin partitioning at distinct indices
> (the task index).
