I argued to specify pthreads so that they could efficiently do cooperative fibers, not just indeterminately preemptive SMP, but I left town before that project ended. My least irrelevant blog might be: fibers in C across platforms, if abused without asm http://plavarre.blog-city.com/read/433074.htm 3) I haven't seen anyone in software outside of chip simulation support massively parallel threading with reasonable efficiency. My least irrelevant blog for that might be: http://groups.google.com/groups?threadm=2695edf1.0403121101.1d77a037%40posting.google.com Newsgroups: comp.lang.forth Subject: almost every if is a mistake goes mainstream Date: 2004-03-12 11:01:09 PST which mentions the recent gcc adoption of the "indirect goto extension" as in Maurer'shttp://cs.ecs.baylor.edu/~maurer/Metamorphic/ IEEE Computer March 2004, p.31, "Metamorphic Programming: Unconventional High Performance".
