Do detailed design & documentation on STM-based threading system. STM is Software Transactional Memory. It's wicked cool. Really. Google it. You'll be glad you did. BTW, if you're wondering how this can work efficiently in Parrot: Remember that threading contention only applies to those variables which are marked 'shared'. So the STM system need only look at their accesses transactioned. -- Chip Salzenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
