Currently we use native threads with a GIL, like 1.9. In the future, we'll likely eliminate the GIL so we have true concurrency.

I recently added experimental support for Fibers, so there is the future option for some kind of mixed mode native/green thread model (perhaps something along the lines of Go routines.)
