| I'm thinking about how to make threaded Haskell program work nicely with | Gtk+ (the widget toolkit) and whether the new threaded rts will help or | not. | ... | | Would bound threads help? I'm not sure I understand the idea very well. That's *exactly* what the bound-threads idea is for. It's implemented in GHC 6.2.1 (see the bound-thread operations in Control.Concurrent). There is a more detailed writeup about bound threads that I think we neglected to complete and publish. Wolfgang Thaller is the main author, and I hope he may pick this up. Meanwhile we'll put the current draft on the GHC site. Simon
