That is exactly my point. I should have 32 threads running, but I have only 8. 32 Task are created, but only only 8 are run concurrently. Flavio and I will try to make a simple program to produce the problem. If we solve our issues on the way, we'll let you know.
thanks a lot anyway. saluti, Stefano 2016-03-29 12:44 GMT+02:00 Till Rohrmann <trohrm...@apache.org>: > Then it shouldn’t be a problem.
