> What do you mean "stop responding"? Both threads print their thread numbers (either 1 or 2) approximately every 10 seconds. However, after a while (minutes to hours) both programs (see above) hang!
Pressing ctrl-c (after the printing stops) causes the threads to "wake up" from their sleep statement. And since the sleep took more than 1 seconds the thread number and the duration of the sleep is printed to the screen. Do you have a hyper-threading/dual/multi core CPU? Did you try this?
