Just do some basic math: 10MB stack/thread * 304 threads =~ 3GB stack unlimited translates to 2MB (that's hardcoded) 2MB stack/thread * 1519 threads =~ 3GB stack If you don't like limited stacks, use a 64bit platform. Otherwise use the function which is part of Unix for ages: pthread_attr_setstacksize. - -- â Ulrich Drepper â Red Hat, Inc. â 444 Castro St â Mountain View, CA â -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/42g72ijCOnn/RHQRAqXIAKCWt0APhk7dIbRpVVQHyzBuGclWcwCfa8uD XiDY9qrQKWQAcr2y3fN9Zv4= =/bDY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
