SL is a small but impressive update
Richard Flude 31st Aug 2009
"The only slight advantage Apple has is that these APIs are now
provided by the OS, while in other cases they had to be used via add-
on libraries. "

Only a slight advantage;-)

"But they have no real technical advantage."

No advantage running these lightweight threads out of userspace;-)

"So I would hardly write a whole blog about how Apple is blazing a
new trail when in fact all they are doing is catching up."

Catching up with whom? What other OS ships with integrated task
parallelism, open GPU co-processing subsystem, and 64-bit
userspace supporting 32 and 64-bit kernels?
