# worker

`worker` is a small Go pool for `func()` tasks. Create it with a minimum and
maximum worker count, then submit tasks:

```go
pool, err := worker.New(2, 8)
if err != nil {
	return err
}
defer pool.Close()

if err := pool.Submit(func() { doWork() }); err != nil {
	return err
}
```

The pool creates the minimum workers immediately and grows on demand up to the
maximum. Its task queue has a fixed capacity of `maxWorkers/2`; once all workers
and queue slots are occupied, `Submit` waits for room. `Close` stops new
submissions and waits for accepted tasks to finish. A successful `Submit` means
the task was accepted; it does not mean the task has started or finished. With
`maxWorkers == 1`, the queue has zero capacity and submissions wait for a worker.

After a task finishes, a worker exits immediately only when `total > min` and
the number of *other* idle workers is greater than `min/2`. There is no idle
timeout. A task panic is logged and that worker continues with later tasks.

Tasks should return normally or panic. A panic in worker scheduling code is
logged and terminates that worker without replacement. `runtime.Goexit` from a
task has the same worker-exit behavior. If the last worker exits abnormally,
queued accepted tasks are discarded so `Close` can return; if other workers
remain, they keep the queue. Call `Close` from outside pool tasks so it does
not wait for itself.

A task may submit another task to the same pool. If all workers block submitting
to a full queue, the caller must resolve that deadlock in its task logic.
