    @s0LA well thanks to this new machine I'm now working on its only a matter of three minutes. The old application was written in one giant sql stored procedure doing the same in 8 to 9 hours

    @jespersh well this would be funny but no the only thread wich is waiting is the main thread.

    I loved making a multi-threaded program with C.

    @jespersh how would it show up like this? If the check for a mutex lock is constantly looped or something else stupid?

    @electrineer Jup it's called a spin lock. Spin locks are used when the context switch from muticies takes to long.

    @Chubak it's exciting and horrifically easy to screw up. Lots of benchmark testing is needed.

    @austudo it wouldn't use the resources as optimally
