import { Observable } from 'rxjs'

// Takes a higher-order observable as input and subscribes to its inner
// observables. Emits an array containing the last emitted value from each *active*

//   1. any inner observable emits
//   2. any inner observable completes
//
// In contrast to `combineLatest`, the latest value from completed observables

I love my new 13" rMBP, but there are performance issues here and there - Sublime is definitely one of them. However with a few tweaks I've been able to get performance up to what I would call acceptable.

Steps:

1. Grab the latest build of Sublime (currently 2219); it has retina fixes. http://www.sublimetext.com/nightly
2. Install HEAD of the Soda theme (instructions under "Download Manually"): https://github.com/buymeasoda/soda-theme/
3. Make these tweaks to your User Preferences (cmd-,):

require 'parallel' # gem install parallel (https://github.com/grosser/parallel)

# Monkey patch to Sprockets::StaticCompiler, a class provided by actionpack
# that's used by the assets:precompile task. This patch uses the Parallel gem
# to parallelize asset compilation in the simplest way possible.
#
# Parallel wraps Process.fork to handle things like inter-process communication
# via pipes and determining the maximum number of processes to run based on
# your system's total logical processors. So far only tested on MRI 1.9.3 on OS X.
