I obtained the source to pThreads system late last night. It does use a barrier using which is not necessary. And FPC (trunk) has another barrier on top of that. I may re-compile pthreads library and update on my machine but I think I already have it running up to speed! Debugger slows things down too. Present version of ThreadMemTest running outside debugger: 10500 threads create in 1.5 seconds :-) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
