in thread Why are people not using POE?

Imagine ...

if Parrot had both. You run those algorithms that need determanistic threading using user threads, and you run the user-thread dispatcher within a kernel thread. Your interface (GUI / CLI / browser ) runs in a separate kernel thread.

The simulation runs perfectly predictably, and the interface can both monitor it's progress and remain responsive to allow the simulation parameters to be adjusted in real time.

Maybe I'm a dreamer...

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
The "good enough" maybe good enough for the now, and perfection maybe unobtainable, but that should not preclude us from striving for perfection, when time, circumstance or desire allow.
