Why this thread? My threads always seem to spiral out of control! You have a boot problem.
Do you enable hyperthreads? He does. hyperthreads can expose the most insecure forms of the recent bugs. I don't run hyperthreads, because most of my applications don't run multiple threads that share enough context to benefit from the greater shared-cache needs of threading.
He was writing about email threads ;-)
==== Sorta, he was talking about both. Certainly anton's response: 'you have a boot problem', wasn't about email threads, no?
I agree with Carlos. Don wasn't talking about hyperthreading at all. He was only talking about email threads. Anton was simply trying to clarify what he thought was the fundamental topic that should be discussed in this mail thread.
