sure but *how* fast they run out is the issue here > Do you really need so many threads? I might be able to do with a few less but I still need many. I have done a quick test. on WinXP I can create 1030 threads on Fedora Core 6 I can only create 301 (both python2.4 and 2.5) now the 301 is rather low I'd say.
