IMHO, Boost.Fiber is a library which - unlike other Boost libraries - has not been developed as a prototype for a particular API (in which case I'd be all for accepting subpar performance). It clearly has been developed to provide a higher performing implementation for an existing API. That means that if Oliver is not able to demonstrate superior performance over existing implementations, I wouldn't see any point in having the library in Boost in the first place.
As I explained several times in this review - boost.fiber aims to provide a way to synchronize/coordinate coroutines as it was requested on the dev-list some months ago. -> boost.asio
