What is the virtual thread / event loop pattern seeking to optimize? Is it context switching?

A number of years ago I remember trying to have a sane discussion about “non blocking” and I remember saying “something” will block eventually no matter what… anything from the buffer being full on the NIC to your cpu being at anything less than 100%. Does it shake out to any real advantage?
