Libmill is a library that introduces Go-style concurrency to C. It can execute up to 20 million coroutines and 50 million context switches per second. It also contains simple networking and file access library that allows users to quickly bootstrap application development.

Libdill is a C library that makes writing structured concurrent programs easy. There is no interaction between threads. Each thread is treated as a separate process. Channels are always unbuffered. Coroutines can be canceled. Generally speaking, though, libdill's concurrency primitives are only a bit slower than basic C flow control statements. A context switch has been seen to execute in as little as 6 ns, with coroutine creation taking 26 ns. Passing a message through a channel takes about 40 ns.

libco is a cooperative multithreading library written in C89. Although cooperative multithreading is limited to a single CPU core, it scales substantially better than preemptive multithreading. For applications that need 100,000 or more context switches per second, the kernel overhead involved in preemptive multithreading can end up becoming the bottleneck in the application. libco can easily scale to 10,000,000 or more context switches per second.
