Hi, This is rather a tech@ question but i'm not high enough for that list. I see some articles about the fact the network stack in OpenBSD is locked or single threaded. IT may be the same thing, i don't really know.
Can anyone share some light for this topic, at some beginner level? What is that 'lock' actually? Does it mean it can only be modified by a single thread at the time? Will multithread make things faster for the case where there is only one physical interface in a computer? Thanks.
