From: Brad Tilley Date: 2006-10-26T10:10:52+09:00 Subject: Re: threads What are reasonable limits on threads? Say I'm scanning a class b network (roughly 65K hosts). How would you break up the threads? I seem to get too many execution expired errors if I have more than 500 hosts in one thread. It seems to work best with 256 groups of 256 hosts each or 254 if you exclude the 0's and 255's What are reasonable limits when working with threads in Ruby? Any tips? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
