NT (and OS/2) does its scheduling on a thread basis and will schedule
multiple threads of the same process on multiple CPUs if available. You'd
have to specifically mark your application to force all threads of a process
to run on a single CPU. Both Sun's and IBM's Win32 JDKs use native threads
which distribute fine among CPUs.

Joe,
I think the threads still have to time share because the threads are
running inside the virtual machine. The VM is simulating a processor -
isn't it?

NT will support up to four processors out of the box ( more with vendor
specific custom implementations. ) Time sliced multi-processor
multithreading is automatic and is a great way to determine if your
threaded
app really works properly. BTW, this is true of all apps on NT ( with
threads ) not just java.
