One line in your 'process_thread' sub looks typo'd to me: > my %p = shift @objs; In any case, sharing your blessings can be tricky in perl. (threads::shared/BUGS) You might skip blessing to 'Packet' entirely -- it encapsulates only two data members in your test program -- and instead pass an unblessed arrayref or hashref between threads. I'd also recommend replacing the "@objs : shared" with a Thread::Queue object, eliminating the need for sleep-poll behavior. Good luck, Mike
