\cgalHeading{Concurrency}
The first template parameter of the function enables to choose whether
the algorithm is to be run in parallel, if `CGAL::Parallel_tag` is specified
and %CGAL has been linked with the Intel TBB library, or sequentially,
if `CGAL::Sequential_tag` - the default value - is specified.
The parallelization of the algorithm is based on a divide-and-conquer
approach: the two ranges are split in a number of smaller ranges, and
all combinations of subranges are treated in parallel.
\warning The parallel mode comes with a small overhead due to the
duplication and splitting of the input ranges. It is an improvement
for almost all inputs, but not all. A configuration where the two ranges
are small and entirely disjoint might result in a slightly worse
runtime when using the parallel version. Users should benchmark both
versions to verify that their data does not fall in this (small)
set of inputs.
\warning When using the parallel mode, the callback function must
be threadsafe.
