Does PyPy ships with an asynchronous IO library for Stackless to be used instead of standard one?

As of PyPy 2.6.1 and PyPy3 2.4.0 you can use asyncio (via the pypi package) to replace the asynchronous features of stackless.

Is there any benefit from using "native" Stackless from PyPy than PyPy + greenlet + some dispatcher

Outside the richer Stackless API (e.g. pickling of micro-threads) it can be speed since the scheduler is part of the runtime written in C. Benchmarks should make this obvious or not.
