stackless vs pycsp

[Arthur Edelstein]

Hi all,

One last question for the night. Does anyone have experience with both
stackless python and pycsp? What are the important differences?

Thanks for putting up with my questions.

Best regards,
Arthur

Hi Arthur,

> One last question for the night.

Keep em coming! :-)

stackless python was originally started from greenlets.

pycsp.greenlets adds the extra CSP layer to greenlets, thus providing
all the known constructs from CSP.
Unfortunately this also adds an overhead, meaning pycsp has trouble
with more than 500.000 pycsp.greenlets, while
stackless python can go to 10 million tasklets (as they are called) or
more.

stackless is very basic, tasklets communicate through blocking
channels, but
stackless have no external choice as we do in CSP.


Hope that answered your question.

Best regards, Rune
