in reply to Problem in creating process

I think by creating process and running it parallel may reduce the execution time. But its increased. How???

Take out a paper telephone directory -- if you still have one, otherwise a dictionary will do -- then get a friend to help you; and both of you to try and lookup a different number (or word) at the same time!

That's what happens when two processes both try to use a single disk drive at the same time.

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