I just found a great presentation here https://ep2012.europython.eu/conference/talks/concurrentfutures-is-here. As non native english, i can't fully understand all of the material presented there. I have some doubt, i hope someone here can give clarification. Could concurrent.futures be a (partly) replacement of gevent? I guess not, because gevent provide lightweight thread via greenlet, while concurrent.futures only provide multiprocessing across different processor) (not lightweight). Thanks
