Solaris10/Sparc, tor and threads

[Thomas.Hluchnik at netcologne.de]

Hello,

my fist steps with running tor on Sparc are successful. I did it with Solaris10, Sun-CC on a E450 with 4 CPU. When doing configure I found a message:

configure:2435: You are running Solaris; Sometimes threading makes
cpu workers lock up here, so I will disable threads.

This is a pity cause I have 4 CPU. Has anyone experience with tor on Sparc-Solaris here and can explain why this is? What would happen if I enforce threading?

Kind Regards

Thomas
