What was the name of the parallel implementation of Linq (not from Microsoft)

Question

I remember seeing a link about it here where some people claimed it's 1000 times faster than the BCL Linq.

Anyone used it here? Is it true?

Also is Microsoft's PLinq gonna be along the same lines? Because it seemed to me like the above mentioned Linq was automatically parallel or something.

And if that's the case, why isn't Microsoft doing the same with the standard Linq?

Answer 1

One thing I know is that the SqlDataReader is significantly faster than LINQ to SQL.

Answer 2

It has nothing to do with parallel anything, but Indexed LINQ lets you add indexes to LINQ-to-Object queries, and claims some pretty dramatic speed-ups in certain cases. Could you be thinking of that?
