Hello, as far as I see there is currently now support for OS level threads in smlnj. Would it be much work to implement this? As far as I can see, CML is implemented using the first class continuations. It seems that many companies will produce multi-core chips in the future, so it would be nice to be able to start n OS level threads if n cores/cpus are available in the system and implement the light-weight threads on top of it, so one can utilize without much effort all those cores/cpus. -- Matthias Kretschmer ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
