That's pretty cool, the examples are quite simple to digest.

Of course, the main argument against it is that you require access to the underlying fds, which most libraries in the ecosystem abstract you away from, so there's no way to use p.ex. net-http with this (without some serious patching and low-lever ivars access). That makes its application limited.

Nevertheless, it's very interesting, thx for sharing. I'm of the opinion that it's about time ruby ships a default performant fiber scheduler
