# coroutines

I'm still trying to wrap my head around coroutines, and I think I'm almost there.

I'm thinking about it in terms of comparison to Rx. Is it safe to say that the practical differences there are:

1. Natural coding style vs streams/operators
2. Less allocation
A. Therefore lower memory usage
B. Therefore potential faster execution (less GC)

1,1 and 1. The second item is non-goal in itself. One cannot say that “Coroutines have less allocations” or vice versa. It all depends on how well a specific (particular) case / code is optimized.
