Read, it shouldn't be a problem ....

It is a problem because every time someone does a PS goes _nuts_ about the
number of JVM processes... While at the end they are just threads... I
believe I replied to this question at least 200 times in the past 5 years,
and _still_ I see people asking...
Yes, I agree that seeing many entries with ps isn't correct but only Linux newbie have problem with it ;)

And try to do a little piece of code creating 1000 threads on Linux and on
Windows 2k... Just to see which one is faster (and I believe we _all_ agree
that Windows sucks!)
It's a known case, even without doing the test I know that W2K will be faster to create thread. There is excellent documentation on Linux kernel on IBM alphaworks site and they show cases where Linux or W2K
implementations are better.

:-) Anyhow, the old battle on why Linux sucks is over... Works for you,
well, use it! :-)
Thanks, it works great for me on ia32 boxes and even on iSeries LPAR (PPC) ;)

    Pier (MacOS/X rocks!)
Pier you know I'm allready convinced that MacOS/X rocks !

The question is why Apple didn't help OpenSource developpers to
switch their primary devel box from Linux ia32 to MacOS/X by making
affordable hardware .....
