I've got a python program written for the django web framework that starts about 100 threads. When I start the server, it sometimes eats up 100% of the CPU for a good minute or so... though none of the threads are CPU-intensive
doing a strace on the program, i found lots of calls like this: select(5, [4], [], [], {1, 0}) = 0 (Timeout) futex(0x86a3ce0, FUTEX_WAIT, 0, NULL) = 0 i've read the man page for futex... but is this normal? thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
