Hi David, I can't help but ask...
You are proposing options that will "help" with the dual processor issue. But, are you REPRODUCING the issue and fixing it? I understand that the problem is that the service goes to sleep for 30 seconds, even though there are messages in the PROC folder. Clearly that should not happen. Changing the "timings" will only create a trade-off by consuming extra machine-resources. Even on a dual-processor system should the service be able to determine reliably if a folder has content or not? I'm just worried that the beta is declared "successful" when an entire class of machines is only working with a bandage.

In particular they to fine tune through-put with CPU utilization. 1. SLOW server that is heavily loaded You may want to try to increase WAITBETWEENTHREADS and lower THREADS. 2. FAST server Use the THREADS and WAITFORTHREADS to adjust the CPU utilization. When decludeproc first starts up it will use a lot of the CPU but after that the %CPU used by decludeproc should come way down. The %CPU of all processes running may be high depending on external tests, other processes, etc. If the system is spiking but coming down quickly that's good.

Thanks for the time.
