Onderwerp: pthread_create and mach ports

hi,

we are moving a program from codewarrior to gcc/xcode...in this project:

we switched from cooperative threads (macintosh thread manager) to
posix-threads
but we see unexpected behaviour when we follow the programs execution
with 'top'

when a new thread is created with phtread_create we see in the '#th'
column a value one higher (ok)
the column '#prts' (mach ports) also increases by one (ok)

when the thread subsequently calls 'usleep' the columns '#prts' again
increases by one (ok)

when the thread finishes (last statement is a call of 'pthread_exit')
the column '#th' decreases by one (again ok)

however:

the column '#prts' continues to show the increased value!

since our program creates a lot of threads this looks like a fairly big
problem
because also the column 'vsize' shows increasingly large values

any clues on how to move on?
