You have absolutely no control over it, unless you introduce your own synchronization mechanisms. The *earliest* it can return is before the new thread has had a chance to run initially. But the starter thread is competing for chances to run with every other thread on the system, so it can be delayed by any other thread, including the one it started, up to and beyond the point when the worker thread exits. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
