Hi Jason,

I tried looking at createThreads() in BaseCPU.py and tried to create a
thread for my other process as well in modified se.py. I am adding my cpu
as tempCPU = [CPUClass(cpu_id = i) for i in xrange(np)] and then I do
tempCPU.append(myCPU(cpu_id=i)).

Should I create a new loop for my cpu and do mycpu.createThreads()? My only
criteria is whenever I do a pthread_create that function should run on
my_cpu.

Thank you in advance!

Mahesh
