Patchset 3, libc_r. But it seems that not all Windows 2000 Advanced Server installations have this problem. I can get about the same number of threads running on a single-CPU box with no service pack. So I've narrowed it down to either broken Hyperthreading (HTT) support in Windows 2000, or a problem with service pack 3 or 4. And can you believe that Microsoft Support want $246 to tell me the answer, even though it's OBVIOUSLY a glitch in their software. A server license buys you no warranty or support other than media replacement in the event of a defective CDROM. :-) Windows. What a waste of time. Ciao, Sheldon.
