### Basic Usage

```python
from python_multirunner import HybridExecutor, AtomicInt, AtomicBool
import asyncio

# Create executor
with HybridExecutor(max_workers=4) as executor:
    # Submit CPU-bound tasks
    future = executor.submit(sum, range(1000000))
    result = future.result()
    print(f"Sum: {result}")
    
    # Submit async tasks
    async def async_task():
        await asyncio.sleep(0.1)
        return "Hello from async!"
    
    future = executor.submit(async_task)
    result = future.result()
    print(result)
```

### Priority-based Execution

```python
with HybridExecutor(max_workers=2) as executor:
    # High priority task (lower number = higher priority)
    high_priority = executor.submit(expensive_function, priority=1)
    
    # Low priority task
    low_priority = executor.submit(background_task, priority=10)
    
    # High priority will execute first
    result = high_priority.result()
```

### Distributed Execution

```python
from python_multirunner import HybridExecutor, SchedulingAlgorithm

# Enable distributed execution
with HybridExecutor(
    max_workers=4,
    enable_distributed=True,
    scheduling_algorithm=SchedulingAlgorithm.LEAST_LOADED
) as executor:
    # Add distributed nodes
    executor.add_node("node1", "192.168.1.10", 8080, cpu_count=8, memory_total=16*1024**3)
    executor.add_node("node2", "192.168.1.11", 8080, cpu_count=16, memory_total=32*1024**3)
    
    # Submit distributed task
    future = executor.submit_distributed(
        compute_intensive_function,
        args=(large_dataset,),
        nodes=["node1", "node2"],
        priority=1
    )
    
    result = future.result()
```

### GPU Execution

```python
# Enable GPU support
with HybridExecutor(
    max_workers=4,
    enable_gpu=True
) as executor:
    # Check available GPU devices
    gpu_devices = executor.get_gpu_devices()
    print(f"Available GPUs: {gpu_devices}")
    
    # Submit GPU task
    future = executor.submit_gpu(
        gpu_compute_function,
        args=(gpu_data,),
        device="cuda:0",
        priority=1
    )
    
    result = future.result()
```

### Performance Monitoring

```python
# Enable monitoring
with HybridExecutor(
    max_workers=4,
    enable_monitoring=True
) as executor:
    # Submit some tasks
    futures = [executor.submit(task_function, i) for i in range(10)]
    
    # Wait for completion
    for future in futures:
        future.result()
    
    # Get performance metrics
    stats = executor.get_stats()
    metrics = executor.get_performance_metrics()
    
    print(f"Tasks completed: {stats['tasks_completed']}")
    print(f"Average duration: {metrics['average_duration']:.3f}s")
    print(f"Total CPU time: {metrics['total_cpu_time']}")
```

### Atomic Primitives

```python
from python_multirunner import AtomicInt, AtomicBool

# Thread-safe counter
counter = AtomicInt(0)
flag = AtomicBool(False)

def worker():
    while not flag.get():
        counter.increment()
        # Do some work...

# Start multiple workers
with HybridExecutor(max_workers=4) as executor:
    futures = [executor.submit(worker) for _ in range(4)]
    
    # Let workers run
    time.sleep(1.0)
    flag.set(True)  # Signal workers to stop
    
    # Collect results
    for future in futures:
        future.result()

    while time.time() - start_time < duration:
        # Simulate work
        time.sleep(random.uniform(0.001, 0.01))
        counter.increment()

# Run specific test categories
pytest -m "not slow"  # Skip slow tests
pytest -m integration  # Run only integration tests
```

## 📊 Performance

Python Multirunner is designed to take advantage of Python 3.13+'s GIL-free runtime:

- **CPU-bound tasks**: True parallelism across multiple cores
- **Async operations**: Efficient event loop integration
- **Work stealing**: Automatic load balancing
- **Priority scheduling**: Critical tasks execute first

### Benchmark Example

```python

from python_multirunner import HybridExecutor

def cpu_task(n):
    return sum(i * i for i in range(n))

# Sequential execution
start = time.time()
results_seq = [cpu_task(10000) for _ in range(10)]
seq_time = time.time() - start

# Parallel execution
start = time.time()
with HybridExecutor(max_workers=4) as executor:
    futures = [executor.submit(cpu_task, 10000) for _ in range(10)]
    results_par = [future.result() for future in futures]
par_time = time.time() - start

print(f"Sequential: {seq_time:.3f}s")
print(f"Parallel: {par_time:.3f}s")
