15 Each fiber has its own stack.

29 A fiber runs on a single thread at any point in time.

47 a given moment, on a given thread, at most one fiber is running.
53 On the other hand, a fiber may safely access any resource exclusively owned by

63 running on a fiber can make what looks like a normal blocking function call.
64 That call can cheaply suspend the calling fiber, allowing other fibers on the
65 same thread to run. When the operation has completed, the suspended fiber
69 A fiber can be migrated from one thread to another, though the library does

79 A fiber launched on a particular thread continues running on that thread

87 Unless migrated, a fiber may access thread-local storage; however that storage

110 a fiber that invokes any of these mechanisms will block its entire thread,
