Re^7: Multithreaded process on AIX slow

My concern is how that is acting differently on AIX.

That is exactly my point. You are in the enviable position of having the debugger's holy grail:

Repeatable scenarios that differentiate exactly on the bug description.

But, rather than exploiting that perfect tool, you appear to want to debug by crowd-sourced guessing....

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

*But, rather than exploiting that perfect tool, you appear to want to debug by crowd-sourced guessing….* Ummm - no - not doing that. Asking directly whether anyone had any experience of a similar issue. That's all. :-) Already several folks have made some helpful suggestions which I'm looking at. I've already narrowed it down to this being the apparent issue. I could still be wrong of course, not saying I'm not, and, I'm not in any way abandoning either further instrumentation or further debugging. Not at all. So, I continue to appreciate and be thankful for all helpful suggestions. Sometimes the off-the-cuff comment can be the item that stimulates the actual answer - even when it's not relevant directly. All good. :-P Kind regards Derek	[reply]
