RE: Threads [Was: Re: 64 bit euphoria]
About threads I would add those points:
1) It's not because euphoria would be threads enabled that someone as to use
this
feature. If one only needs a single thread app, it could write it anyway. The
point is not to have un multithread interpreter but to have a multi-thread
enabled interpreter (one that enable us to write multithread app).
2) If it's true that a single processor can run only thread at a time. Threads
are still usefull to go around blocking procedures.
3) If one open task magager and goes to the processes tab and configure it to
display
the number of theards per processes it would see that single thread processes
are
indeed very few. In fact on my system, without any program running, on 26
processes
running only 1 is single threads. I don't think that all those programs where
written multi-threads just for the fun of it.

Jacques D.
