Description

A lot of the code in the library is still single-threaded, despite being "embarrassingly parallelizable" using rayons par_iter and other iterators. There are a lot of easy speedup wins to be had. this issue is also good for beginners as it won't have massive changes to the code and helps them learn a useful rust crate

Contributor guide

Research direction
Identify parts of the codebase that can be parallelized using Rayon's par iter and implement the PAL design. Start with simple loops and ensure thread safety.
