I never managed to understand why so many people were apparently longering for multicore support. I just can't believe many are impatiently waiting for this feature to start using the ocaml language for some projects requiring multicore support, and I became impatient myself just to see what those projects are.

In recent years where servers are to scale to many machines I found myself using less and less kennel threads. Also it seams GUIs are mostly web theses days. Most remaining fields I can imagine where you would want kennel threads, ocaml would not fit anyway because of GC and lack of control over memory layout.

So I really wonder...
