Re: [boost] [asio] Bug: Handlers execute on the wrong strand (Gavin Lambert).

I actually ended up abandoning Asio and rolling my own threadqueue (I didn't want any of the socket-related stuff so this wasn't as big a job as it sounds). Mine isn't fully-baked yet (and it's Windows-only for the moment) and I'm not sure I'd want to show it off either, but on the upside most of the guts are entirely lock-free (though not wait-free, since it's based on Boost.LockFree's queue).

Asio at Windows uses IOCP (default settings, using asio::io_service for task scheduling) and that is the (theoretical) reason of better thread scheduling for the Asio-based thread pool. Sometimes it's really visible. Regards, Marat Abrarov.
