Stackless python does absolutely nothing to help with scaling applications to multiple cores. It allows you to write asynchronous applications to better utilize a single processor for operations that depend heavily on IO (or otherwise waiting for some resource).


I wasn't pushing Stackless, just saying that others have mentioned it and its ancestory has something in common with what I'm trying to sell; channels as a synchronisation method. See the references I gave for more details.
