It depends on the nature of the problem and the available hardware. In some cases, executing Python code using the parallel library can result in faster execution times compared to sequential execution as it allows for multiple processes to run simultaneously on multiple cores or nodes. However, in some cases, the overhead of coordinating the parallel processes and communication between them can lead to slower execution times compared to sequential execution. It is important to carefully consider the nature of the problem and the available hardware before deciding to use the parallel library.
