Description

Currently the transpose of the shared sparse matrix is computed in serial by calling transpose on a local version of the matrix: `transpose(A) = share(transpose(localize(A)))`. We should be able to transpose much more quickly using parallelism.

Research direction

Start by locating the shared sparse matrix transpose path described as transpose(A) = share(transpose(localize(A))). Read the surrounding implementation and existing tests or benchmarks, then determine how parallel transpose should be measured against the current serial path. Done means transpose uses parallelism without changing its result or shared-matrix behavior.
