Do note, as is mentioned in the comment Thread for the gist, that Fibur is also fully Ruby 1.8 compatible...
lol, comment Thread

#12What benefits does Fibur give you that em-synchrony doesn't? Not suggesting there isn't a need for a competitor, but trying to place it in the space.

#13Would this be useful for environments where extreme performance is necessary, such as Fibonacci API servers?
Only if you're reading Fibonacci numbers from an I/O. Fibur only allows concurrency while doing I/O operations.
Not true!, it will keep the response time interquartile range small, providing a consistent user experience!

#15These things are usually hard to implement, but Aaron has put his mastery on the table, very clean and well-written code.
Genius! (~_^)

A bit light-on with the comments, though.

#17Make sure you read and understand the source code before commenting here. It won't take very long, trust me.

What benefits does em-syncrony give you that Fibur doesn't?

Only if you're reading Fibonacci numbers from an I/O. Fibur only allows concurrency while doing I/O operations.
We can use the technique first described here https://github.com/glenjamin/node-fib by using Fibur.pass.
def fib(n)
Fibur.pass
return n if (0..1).include? n
fib(n-1) + fib(n-2) if n > 1
end

#20Earlier quoted context omitted.

Bro, you get parallel operation anyway, that Fibur.pass just added scheduler overhead.
The whole point of Fibur is you don't need to use #pass!!!
