Hello Jim

Thanks for the response.
For now, we are trying to create a minimal amount of threads and share them between different modules. This will help us to use the global pool judiciously. 

I have one question though.
In spdk_reactors_start(), for every reactor, SPDK thread is created and added to g_threads.
1. Why are these threads created and where are they used?
2. Can the other modules in the system reuse these threads?

Thanks
