%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.
