Which process consumes more resources, or are they so close it doesn't matter: a process that has called $HIBER or a process that has called $WFLOR? Peter Scott (pjs%grouch@jpl-mil.jpl.nasa.gov)

Which process consumes more resources, or are they so close it doesn't matter: a process that has called $HIBER or a process that has called $WFLOR? About the same. Oddly enough, it is slightly faster to wake a process by setting an event flag while it is in LEF state than by doing a $WAKE while it is hibernating - but the difference is so small that designing on that basis is silly: The next code tweak in VMS is likely to change things. -- Jerry
