MultiThreading Question

[Warren Kuhl]

Bjornke,

Thanks for your response.  I will look further into the suggestions
you provided.  I only plan to allow for up to 20 simutaneous
connections so the livecode app via the terminal might do the trick.

Appreciate your help!

You can also call that process several time, once for each query, and therefore get closer to multiprocessing (tho this is not very efficient, and not suggested for thousands of parallel tasks).
