One bad thing with user level threads (actualy pthreads that I used): sheduler which runs on user lever ALWAYS consume processor time (even wnen all threads sleeps), and permanenly keep part of code in memory. If it is true (maybe I misunderstand something), then pthreads is bad solution for heavy loaded systems. Igor
