== NPTL vs. Windows threading experiments ==
In research done by Edward Rice in [[February]] of [[2004]], NPTL was compared to the [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] Threading Library. A program written in Java created multiple threads that ran at the same time. This program was run on both Windows and Linux on a dual boot system [[Intel]] non-[[hyper-threading]] chipset. It was discovered that Windows handled threads that yielded often better than Red Hat Linux 9, but Red Hat Linux 9 handled threads that yielded less frequently better than Windows. It was concluded that this was the result of the time it takes for a thread to yield and the [[virtual machine]] to pick a new one .
