>> But let me add a voice to keeping the non-threaded RTS around. i want to mention that problem here is not the threaded RTS by itself, but standard i/o library that works via separate i/o manager thread that is built-in part of RTS. my Streams library [1] don't uses this thread at all. for threads created with forkOS it provides excellent overlapping of I/O and computations (thanks, Simon, situation was *greatly* improved in 6.6). of course, it should be not so great for forkIO'd threads that i want to say is that future i/o lib may be written in the RTS-independent way. John Meacham once proposed to develop some common API for i/o managers that will allow to use various "select" variants with any i/o lib that works via this API -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
