Time and space overheads similar to > regular procedure calls? Yes. This isn't working 100% (at least I couldn't get it working without tweaking the opcodes a bit) but you can see an example of some microthreads at http://pirate.tangentcode.com/ ) ... Microthreads is kind of a loose word for it because it's just a list of generators that increment at each tick. The bytecode I'm generating there is really really bad, so it runs pretty slow, but it definitely works. You might try playing around with that.
