Message-ID: <1118426167.17936.32.camel@chunky.valdosta.edu> (raw)

I'm confused.  In the documentation on the threads library it says that
the threads implementation is shared time on only a single processor. 
Is that for VM and system threads, or are the POSIX threads able to take
advantage of multiple processors?  I would think they would be able to
because (unless I'm mistaken) they're just wrappers around the C system
calls...
