I thought about what I said in my previous post. More like what I didn't say. I
would like to add you are doing great work and you should be commended for
moving Stackless forward! I am not sure sure how I can use your work. However
when I get a chance, I will download the patch and see what I can do with it.
That said, what I am trying to figure out is what problems you are trying
to solve that are specific to the architecture of the EVE-Online, and what
problems are common to most Stackless Python based systems.
At the moment, I guess the next thing I am trying to understand are lock
convoys. From my limited understanding I thought that lock convoys were a
problem in a pre-emptive scheduling system. Then again, I believe EVE uses
pre-emptive scheduling.

No go ahead.
Cheers,
