Thanks for all the responses everyone. Quite helpful.
Here are some more questions I've thought of about using a
multi-procesing machine with Java:
1. When a thread gets assigned to a given processor, is it tied to that
processor until it's death, or does the Kernel and/or JVM have the
ability to re-assign the thread to the other processor while it's
active? For example, suppose I write a Java application with 10 threads,
and all of a sudden one of them starts throwing a ton of work to
something like the event dispatching thread. Assuming the EDT would be
tied to a processor, could the kernel or JVM switch some (or all) of the
other threads to the other processor while active.
2. Is there a relatively easy way to monitor which thread is on which
processor?
Thanks.
