Dion Moult f24e9a6bca ifcparse: build the lazy index in parallel
On a file large enough the DATA section is split at the same boundaries
the parallel parse uses (chunk_bounds(), now shared) and each chunk is
indexed by its own worker with its own paged reader, lexer, shells,
offsets, GlobalIds and inverse records; the results are merged in file
order, so instance order, GlobalId precedence and inverse records are
identical to the serial index. The serial index is the same code run on
one chunk. The name table is reserved before the merge, which also
helps the serial case. The default thread count is the one the full
parse uses.

TXG 58 MB / 210_King 147 MB / OKgate22 231 MB, lazy open: 12 threads
0.37 / 1.01 / 1.34 s against 0.55 / 1.59 / 2.11 s on one thread and
0.44 / 1.17 / 1.91 s for the default (parallel full) open; memory after
the open +15 to +50 MB at 12 threads for the workers' page caches. The
equality test now opens the 12 MB replicated fixture lazily with five
workers and compares it instance by instance with the serial parse.

IfcOpenShell

IfcOpenShell is an open source (LGPL) software library for working with Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). Complete parsing support is provided for IFC2x3 TC1, IFC4 Add2 TC1, IFC4x1, IFC4x2, and IFC4x3 Add2. Extensive geometric support is implemented for the IFC releases IFC2x3 TC1 and IFC4 Add2 TC1. Extending with support for arbitrary IFC schemas is possible at compile-time when using C++ and at run-time when using Python.

In addition to a C++ and Python API, IfcOpenShell comes with an ecosystem of tools, notably including IfcConvert (an application to convert IFC models to other formats), Bonsai (an add-on to Blender providing a graphical IFC authoring platform), and many other libraries, CLI apps, and more. Support is also provided for auxiliary standards such as BCF and IDS.
