I'm not sure, but I think so.

It does limit the number of simultaneously-running tasks.

I think you need to look at the code more closely (and try using it). The
fact that there's a generator that is yielding deferreds one by one and
that you pass that generator to coop.coiterate the # of simultaneous tasks
that you want has the effect of only launching that many tasks at once and
the cooperator just pulls a new one from the iterator/generator when one of
the previous jobs finishes. It's a bit subtle, but I think it's what you
want. Give the code a try & see :-)
