Why Threads Alone Struggle to Achieve Million‑Scale Concurrency and How Coroutines Provide a Better Solution
The article examines why relying solely on threads cannot achieve single‑machine million‑level concurrency, analyzing thread resource consumption, context‑switch overhead, and contrasting it with user‑space coroutine scheduling that offers predictable, low‑cost switches, making coroutines better suited for IO‑intensive high‑concurrency scenarios.
