System.Threading.Tasks – Limit the number of concurrent Tasks

by

I know this is almost a year old, but I have found a much easier way to achieve this, so I thought I would share:

Dim actionsArray() As Action = 
     new Action(){
         New Action(Sub() DoComputation1()),
         New Action(Sub() DoComputation2()),
         ...
         New Action(Sub() DoComputation100())
      }

System.Threading.Tasks.Parallel.Invoke(New Tasks.ParallelOptions() With {.MaxDegreeOfParallelism = 5}, actionsArray)

Voila!
