Abstract
Consumer threads can assist in performing progressive chunking for a data queue. For example, a consumer thread can determine a current-chunk identifier indicating a current memory chunk of an unbounded queue, where the current memory chunk is associated with a producer thread that is different from the consumer thread. The consumer thread can determine a target-chunk identifier indicating a target memory chunk to which the producer thread is to write a data item. In response to determining that the target-chunk identifier is greater than the current-chunk identifier, the consumer thread can append a new memory chunk to the unbounded queue for use as the target memory chunk by the producer thread.
