natarius Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 hi everyone, i have read at this ftp://ftp.steinberg.net/Download/General_Documents/Multiprocessing_Tech_Info.pdf article, that there are some kind of different thread modes! static and dynamic!? So static threads are hardwired to one cpu while dynamic threads can jump dynamicly between cpu's! how does that work and how can i do this with vb.net!? i couldn't find any setting in the thread class like this! or is it just a marketinh hoax?! thx & greets natarius Quote
Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted November 1, 2005 Administrators Posted November 1, 2005 You may find this link gives a better background into different threading models as the PDF just sounds like a lot of marketing babble. The threading model in windows is symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) this means threads are not locked into a single cpu, there is nothing you need to do to take advantage of this other than write multi-threaded code (not a trivial thing but nothing as magical as the PDF makes out).
