context switching times,
That's probabily the same as thread switching time.

Competent language-level concurrency support (as in Haskell and Erlang)
makes a context switch about as expensive as a function call, thousands of
times faster than an OS-level process switch.


I know.
But when using the term "thread" one usually assume kernel thread.

Of course if we talk about user threads it's a whole new story.
