Another relevant paper on low MLP in this case shared-memory graph algorithms (http://www.scottbeamer.net/pubs/beamer-iiswc2015.pdf). It would be interesting to see whether Cimple can significantly improve performance for graph algorithms (the paper does mention it as a potential use-case).
For anyone curious, I'm not affiliated with the authors of the paper. It's scheduled to appear at PACT'19. AFAIK the code is not publicly available yet.
