[Stackless] Mixing os threads and stackless

[Lloyd Weehuizen]

Hi Johan

I don't *think* you'd get much advantage with this as the python global 
interpreter lock will block all threads while another is executing so 
you might as well run a single thread with all your tasklets in it?

Unless ofcourse you have specific C routines in your code that get 
called into often that release the interpreter lock? Your best bet is 
probably to run some tests in your application and see which gives the 
best performance.
