What Hacker News says

2 sources
> You use green threads instead of native threads because native threads have space overhead, not because they have time overhead. The main overhead of a thread, green or native, is the stack. The size of the stack is independent of whether you use native or green threads. Go's small stacks are actually made possible by its GC, not its choice of 1:1 or M:N. In musl, for example, you can have 2KB stacks [1] with 1:1. I haven't seen a benchmark of huge numbers of native threads vs. a userland scheduler, but I have a hard time imagining that a userland scheduler will beat the kernel's scheduler. The kernel scheduler has a much more global picture of the system compared to userland. [1]: https://github.com/rofl0r/musl/blob/d05aaedaabd4f5472c233dbb...
