[pypy-dev] pre-emptive micro-threads utilizing shared memory message passing?

[Jim Baker]

A much shorter version of the Jython memory model can be found in my book:
http://jythonpodcast.hostjava.net/jythonbook/en/1.0/Concurrency.html#python-memory-model

In general, I would think the coroutine mechanism being implemented by Lukas
Stadler for the MLVM version of the hotspot JVM might be a good option; you
can directly control the scheduling, although I don't think you change the
mapping from one hardware thread to another. (That's probably not
interesting.)

There are good results with JRuby, it would be nice to replicate with Jython
- and it should be really straightforward to do that. See
