Threads won't give you a speedup unless you run the program on a multi-core/multi-proc machine.
That's actually not true. Threads allow you managing your IO blocking better, and not making IO block your whole program can certainly speed it up by a couple of orders of magnitude.
They help making the program simpler, IMHO.
They can. They can make it more complex, too :) Jules _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
