I'm sure Timothy Baldridge will speak to the core.async specifics, but I'll 
offer a high level.

libmill is a library for C coroutines (using jumps), with Go-style syntax.  
It's more similar to Lua's coroutines than Go's goroutines.  In libmill, 
there is only one thread performing the concurrency (and all the issues of 
combining coroutines with pthread apply).

Go uses a threadpool to run as many goroutines in parallel as possible - 
it'd be like backing libmill's scheduler with a threadpool.

Clojure's core.async is based on Go's goroutines - there is a threadpool 
and execution happens in parallel when possible.

Cheers,
Paul
