The test suite on blead on my system runs 17% slower under ithreads, but that includes running a bunch of ithreads-only tests too. So I think 30% is overstating it. I'm not aware that a normal single-threaded process uses significantly more memory under ithreads. -- Hofstadter's Law: It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law.Thread Previous | Thread Next
