The Rust version of this is "turn .iter() into .par_iter()."
It's also true that for both, it's not always as easy as "just make the for loop parallel." Stylo is significantly more complex than that.

I'm actually a Chrome user. Does Chrome do what Stylo does? I didn't think it did, but I also haven't really paid attention to the internals of any browsers in the last few years.
