And whats wrong with the performance?
you need some sort of concurrency. processes or different machines instead of threads works, but would be too slow. cooperative multi-tasking would work as well, but then you'd need to split up all methods where accessors are called that belong to resources which could be locked. acquiring all the locks at the beginning of the method sucks. so, threads should be best way (-> "... somehow"). according to how i interpreted the ithreads ml posts several users are not quite happy about performance, especially memory usage. it's good work and they like it but had thought that it would be better. that doesn't really affect POE. more accurate and smiley removed, torvald
