The problem I encountered with running Stackless and
Twisted in the same thread is if the Twisted reactor
blocks waiting (i.e., for an incoming client
connection), Stackless will block. This is okay, if
tasklets just wait for connections. However if you
have other tasklets that could otherwise execute, they
will block too. This cuts down on the Application's
overall concurrency.

Cheers,
