The resounding question in my mind is why this, when there is Stackless Python? What's better about this greenthreading impl? http://www.stackless.com/

This is a library that can be used to supplement any implementation.
If I'd had the option to switch us to stackless easily, and I could guarantee it was as fast, worked with all the libraries, and was as stable, I probably wouldn't have written this. I imagine that there are a lot of people in the same boat, where switching interpreters isn't really an option.
