FreeBSD 5.0 has the ability for userland processes to create multiple kernel threads. It does not yet have a POSIX interface to those threads, so don't go asking people for kernel threads support just yet :) 5.0 has a lot of new features, but some of them are not complete (kernel threads), or not very well tested (sparc64/ia64 ports, MAC, ufs2). The hope is that lots of people will install 5.0 and report problems so that 5.2 can be marked -STABLE. http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.0R/early-adopter.html -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
