Hello.

I’ve posted a document describing the project’s goals and current progress:

    http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rpressler/loom/loom/sol1_part1.html

It is accompanied by a new EA build, based on jdk-15+21.

The new continuations algorithm is now switched on by default, so if you haven’t 
explicitly turned it on before, you may see some performance improvements. 
You can switch it off with -XX:-UseContinuationChunks.
