Probably, but I haven't yet seen anyone ask the real important question. What possible use could you have for more than 1000 *simultaneously active* threads? There are very likely several alternative approaches that will fit your use case and have better characteristics (e.g. higher performance, simpler code, safer architecture, etc). -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
