Kenny,

Surely, uless you have a 15,000 Processor system, that at some point your system will become processor bound? It will spend more time context switching than it actually does running the processes.

I suspect that this would be the case if each thread were active a large portion of the time, but the way simulations pan out, the threads are largely dormant and primarily used to maintain state between the transmission and reception messages.

Can't one thread handle multiple queues?

I'm looking at ways to aggregate functionality, but it would be easier to just make more threads :-)

Thanks,

Andreas
