Great! Thanks for your interest and contribution.
I'd prefer to keep ga package Matlab compatible, so I locally started
to implement handling of "UseParallel" [0] and "Vectorized" [1]
options. Below you can read the description I'm adding for them. I
hope to commit this code by this week. Then we will be able to decide
if it is possible to add your ideas (or other ideas in this email
thread) in a Matlab-compatible way.
Thanks,
Luca Favatella
