Looks very nice!

Does this play well with existing JVM threading support? More specifically, if there is a call to a synchronized method inside of a fiber and another JVM thread has entered the monitor, will this block the entire fiber scheduling thread?

The reason I ask is I'd like something that plays well with legacy code.



A synchronized method would block the entire thread, but calls to ReentrantLock.lock, or any other java.util.concurrent class, can be turned from thread-blocking to fiber blocking.
