good for, as an example, heavily I/O-bound stuff.
Where does the overhead come from? Is the overhead from using
fibers the only problem for implementing coroutines?
I ask, because if except for the overhead, fibers are a good
general solution, then it makes sense to determine if anything
can be done to lessen the overhead before trying to implement yet
another solution.
