In any case, 10K+ coroutines are not the best use case for Coco.
While it's convenient to be able to yield and resume to C code,
the C stacks are rather costly. You might be better off in the
long term to convert to non-blocking C functions and wrap some Lua
code around them which does the yield instead.

because my framework needs to yield lua execution inside metamethod to provide similar feature like lua-RPC(http://q12.org/lua/index.html) but more asynchronous. if there is way to yield inside metamethod and less memory overhead, I should use it. but currently (as long as my investigation) I need to rely on lua+coco patch.
