Petz,

C++ code doesn't really provide enough info from the programmer to the CPU to allow efficient multithreading.

I've seen some reasonable multithreaded C++ code, but I don't see any real advantage to running it on a "multi-threaded" CPU over an SMP system.

Hello John,

Re: I agree with you. C++ code doesn't really provide enough info from the programmer to the CPU to allow efficient multithreading.

But, the C++ programmer has the power to start and use a new thread whenever desired.

Kindest regards,
CrazyMan
