20b Subj : Best possible stack size for a thread To : comp.programming.threads From : karthikeyan.jambulingam@gmail.com Date : Fri Sep 16 2005 01:20 am Dear All, I am new to this group and am creating a pthread . The stacksize allocated by the Linux OS (without any setstacksize) seems to be around 2 MB ( calculated using getstacksize) . I need to know is such a large stack size required for the thread to function . How can I find out a optimal value for the stack size of a thread ?? . Regards JK . 0
