DESCRIPTION
The libthr library provides an alternative 1:1 implementation of the pthread(3) library interfaces for application threading. While applications may be linked directly against libthr, system administrators are offered maximum flexibility by linking against pthread(3), as they can then use libmap.conf(5) to select the threading implementation on a per-application basis. The libthr library has been optimized for use by applications expecting system scope thread semantics, and can provide significant performance improvements.
