Hi all,I’m testing Snort 3.0.0-a2 with theoptions –max-packet-threads is configured to 2, 4 , 8 …, like this : $ sudo /usr/local/snort3/bin/snort-c /usr/local/snort3/etc/snort/snort.lua -R/usr/local/snort3/etc/snort/sample.rules -r ../ni0.pcap -n 600000 -z 8 However, when I used valgrind tocheck the number of threads that Snort is actually running on, there’s always just 2threads : ==2672==---Thread-Announcement------------------------------------------ ==2672== ==2672== Thread #2 was created ==2672== at0x78288FE: clone (in /lib64/libc-2.12.so) ==2672== by0x4E368BF: do_clone.clone.0 (in /lib64/libpthread-2.12.so) ==2672== by0x4E36E1C: pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.2.5 (in /lib64/libpthread-2.12.so) ==2672== by0x4C2CF3C: pthread_create_WRK (hg_intercepts.c:255) ==2672== by0x4C2D04B: pthread_create@* (hg_intercepts.c:286) ==2672== by0x705184E:std::thread::_M_start_thread(std::shared_ptr<std::thread::_Impl_base>)(gthr-default.h:662) ==2672== by0x416447: Pig::start(unsigned int, char const*, Swapper*) (thread:135) ==2672== by0x416CD8: main (main.cc:818) ==2672== ==2672== ---------------------------------------------------------------- So is there anyway to force Snortto run on more than 2 threads ?
