Spinning Fast Iterative Data Flows

Summary: Integrates incremental/workset iterations into parallel dataflows, exposing sparse computational dependencies absent from bulk iteration. A prototype achieves up to 100× speedups on iterative algorithms while retaining a unified, optimizer-friendly dataflow abstraction competitive with specialized systems.
