Very interesting video about the kernel (in future) perhaps interacting more closesly with user-space about scheduling decisions and threads, thus reducing overhead and perhaps eliminating the *need* for M:N. Having said that, M:N seems to work for Haskell where they recently showed near-perfect scalability to 42 cores for a web server (beating out nginx and apache handily, even on absolute numbers). For the life of me I can't find the PDF/paper reference right now, but I'll try to follow up with a proper reference. Perhaps there's some magical properties of Haskell with make that less problematic than for Rust, but... Anyway, of course we all *hope* that tricks like M:N won't be necessary in the future, but how soon can we hope that the future arrives? ;) Regards, _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list Rust-dev@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
