Doesn't vibe-d use Fibers?
I tried to build a simple web server with a fiber-based approach once -
it was horribly slow.
I hope C# (and soon C++) style stackless resumable functions will
eventually come to D.
It uses them and the overhead actually diminishes once the application
does anything meaningful. To test this, I created two low-level tests
for eventcore that mimic a minimal HTTP server. AFAIR, I got around
300kreq/s on a single core without fibers and around 290kreq/s with
fibers, which amounts to an overhead of about 0.1µs per request.

Stackless fibers would be really nice to have because of the merged
stacks and the lower amount of reserved memory required (even though
this is not a really big issue on 64-bit systems), but for pure
performance I don't think they would be a critical addition.
