My task manager shows I have
5158 active handles
300 active threads
23 active processes
I personally have only the task manager and this board open. The rest belongs to the system and a campus network connection.
Is this high?

Thanks, just checking. I mean, I can count the 23 processes, but 5000 handles? Sheesh, what are they being used for? I've never had the need to use more than 1 handle in a single program. That's something like 200 handles for each process? And 300 threads? For what?

That's probably why those Linux freaks b*tch about Windows
I have 6365 handles, 345 threads, 32 processes
What does that mean anyway?
What is C++?
That the computer is doing a bunch of crap when it is supposedly idle.
Basically, a handle is an ID. A thread is a child process. And a process is ... you should know this stuff V ... is a main program loop.

Exactly Tim.

I'm not too sure, but I think that the "handles" represent the available handles on your system. i.e. the maximum number of handles that can be used.
Similar, to the FILES=30 in your CONFIG.SYS
That would be a relief. It would also make more sense... same with the threads you think?

No that can't be true because under processes it says 31. I don't think there's a limit like that on processes.
Could be the gajillion or so .dll's what Windoze keeps on hand. Runtime libs, virtual drivers, etc.

A thread is a path of execution (Of which a process can have at least 1 or more)
A handle is an ID for a resource.....some relate to high level stuff such as windows....some to lower level stuff like kernal objects (Files...pipes....even threads and processes!)
I am not sure but I imagine that many handles might relate to 1 object, but they may be relative to different processes.....so I guess if that's true there would be a fair amount of duplication at any one time....probably that's why there would be so many

GIVE ME A BREAK! I was half asleep, I got on today and saw some posts I didnt remember making

Lol ... sleep-posting?
