Subject: Re: Threads or Fibers - which should I use?

Well, after doing a lot of research on this, I've come up with the 
following:

Fibers would be faster and use less memory for blocking I/O.  Threads 
are necessary for blocking CPU.

Because my app requires CPU blocking and I/O blocking I could 
incorporate both.  One of the fibers library I was looking over appears 
very solid:  (neverblock): http://github.com/oldmoe/neverblock

I'm still looking over other solutions.
