Go up one level in this thread


BTW, I don't see how _any_ thread approach can be "much higher performance"
since they all revolve around the clone() system call and kernel process
scheduler.  Perhaps the barriers, locks, and stuff are significantly more
efficient, but then I don't use any of that whatsoever in Crafty anyway.  I
start threads, and then use inline locks and nothing else from a thread library
at all, other than what the "control thread" does...  It is going to be
"history" real soon, hopefully this weekend. :)
