Hi all,
I created the attached torture test to get a feeling of how many processes I
can create and if my planned approach would work. With about 100.000 processes
I ran into a crash inside the GC. Compiling GST without support for the
generational GC seem not to crash.
Is this test just hitting the limit of number of objects that the GC can
properly manage? I will now build with GC_DEBUG and see what we are hitting.
regards
holger
