I imagine that lost cache is one of the biggest costs in thread
switching. It would be great if a thread could select a thread with
something like "I'm done, now please switch to my reader". And that's
exactly one of the benefits of fibers: two workers ping pong back and
forth, without much risk of losing their cached data.
Is my assumption correct?
