Is that argument mentioned in the article? I didn't see it.. but maybe I
skimmed over it too fast.
In general, the current model is single-threaded I/O + worker threads +
multiple processes behind a load balancer. However, it's planned for
v1.0 to support distribution of connection handler fibers to a thread
pool, so that explicit worker threads are not strictly necessary
anymore. This would be the Go model in principle.
