Hi, Just read a post about schedulers in erlang and go lang, which informed me that erlang is preemptive and go lang is cooperative. So which is used by GHC? From ghc wiki about rts, if the question is only within haskell threads, it seems like cooperative.

GHC is pre-emptive, but see http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/367. Cheers, Simon
