Hi 👋 !
As discussed privately, it would be nice for runtimes to disable the use of
Atomics
globally as it does not change the outcome at all. A runtime like WebContainer runs in the browser and is currently not capable of implementingreceiveMessageOnPort
as the browser does not have such implementation.By adding this environment variable, we are capable of turning it off in general and make piscina work out-of-the-box in StackBlitz WebContainers.
Feel free to suggest different wording for the readme.
