I agree in some cases debugging would be hard, but I feel there are cases where the thread model will make the debugging experience better e.g breaking at the entry point of the new parallel worker or other worker is hard with the process model but that would be very smooth with the thread model as per my experience. -- Regards, Dilip Kumar EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
