Just throwing something out here... Since you have limited the number of threads that can run at once to 10, why not set it up so each thread processes more than one PDF. That way you don't have to create so many threads. If they can't run all at once it seems kind of pointless to use 1300 of them anyway.
Set each thread up to loop and process 130 documents. Then kick off all 10 of them. ~Brad ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:307447 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
