in reply to Re^6: removing all threads..
in thread removing all threads..

I'd love to! Unfortunately, it's proprietary, confidental. I would have loved to get peer review of the codebase, but that was forbidden also. Secret sauce.

Maybe I can cobble together a separate example that fails in a similar way...

...You know, actually I can't. I couldn't ever reproduce the problem on anything but those old rhel machines and I don't have access to them anymore (that project is done). The threads::shared code worked on all my own servers.

What I can do is share a sample (mock) marshalled datastructure "storable" that contains a datastructure which in all likelihood would have made the original code/server puke. The act of passing structs like the dummy storable I'll share with you is what made the segfaults happen.

I'll need a few hours before I can get that. It might be as long as tomorrow.

Maybe there's something to be learned here, which I would enjoy very much!
