Surrender control back to event loop

[normelton]

I'm using async/scheduler as a fiber scheduler. I've got a somewhat long-running fiber that is blocking other fibers from reading from IO's. I'd like the long-running fiber to periodically "surrender" control to the event loop, allow other fibers a chance to run, and then resume where it left off.

I could Fiber.yield, but there's no good mechanism to later resume the fiber.

I stumbled on this solution:

Fiber.scheduler.push(Fiber.current)
Fiber.scheduler.transfer

Is this safe? Is there a better way?

You can just call sleep(0).
