Description : Cooperative light-weight thread library for OCaml
Lwt is a library of cooperative threads implemented in monadic
style. With respect to preemptive threads, cooperative threads are
not using a scheduler to distribute processor time between
threads. Instead of this, each thread must tell the others that he
wants to let them work.
Previous versions of Lwt were shipped with Ocsigen (already packaged
in Debian). Lwt is now shipped separately upstream, and the next
release of Ocsigen will need this new version of Lwt.
