When you forkIO and one of the threads blocks (e.g. on a socket or a readchan), do execution automatically resume on other threads and does the blocked thread consume timeslices while it is blocked? In other words, is there any performance penalty in setting timeslices very large in a server app (where all I care about is throughput)? -Alex- _________________________________________________________________ S.
