%X We present a tight integration of a user\-level thread
   scheduler and a zero\-copy messaging system that has been
   designed and optimized for scalable and efficient
   fine\-grain parallel processing, on commodity platforms,
   with support for fault\-tolerance. The system delivers most
   of the performance of the underlying communication hardware
   to a multi\-threaded application level, while introducing
   little CPU overhead. This is demonstrated by a performance
   analysis of an implementation using off\-the\-shelf
   commodity products: PCs, running the Linux operating system,
   equipped with Fast and Gigabit Ethernet network interface
   cards.
