Efficient Number of Threads

Question

Answer 1

There is really no universal answer to this. The number of threads you spawn is a function of how many tasks you are doing, how they communicate and how you design your application. I have had extremely large apps that have only one thread that runs fine. On the other hand I have also had small applications that mandated multiple threads for performance sake.
