Does anyone know how processes are implemented in termite?

I remember looking at candygram a while ago (erlang style message passing for python) and reading that a 'process' uses the OS's underlying thread so you can't scale the number of processes like you could on erlang.

Not that it's been a bottleneck for me but I'm just curious.
