Does not include the enhanced top-level, which will be added in a later update. From Christopher Zimmermann <madroach@gmerlin.de> -- Lwt provides very light-weight cooperative threads for OCaml; ``launching'' a thread is a very fast operation, it does not require a new stack, a new process, or anything else. Moreover context switches are very fast. In fact, it is so easy that a thread can be launched for every system call. And composing cooperative threads will allow highly asynchronous programs.
