What are you trying to say? This sounds like a tautology to me.

What are you trying to say? This sounds like a tautology to me.
- MikeTheGreat 4y agoI think they meant that the main cost of a new thread that you'd like to create is the time it takes to spawn (i.e., the time it takes to set up the new thread and get it ready to run) and NOT the memory that gets allocated for it, nor the operating system overhead of keeping it around afterwards, etc, etc. (I'm not agreeing or disagreeing; I'm only trying to helpfully clarify)
- SemanticStrengh 4y agoThis is not a tautology.
- kevincox 4y agoThey are saying that most of the cost is startup cost, not running overhead.
