Is there any limit on client threads






Hi,

I am running the iperf server on one machine and from another machines ,
I am spawning 250 clients using the -P options. This should create 250
threads.

But the iperf , give the "pthread_create" failed error.
Before this .. the linux reports "Interrupting system call" message.

I have x86 machines with pentium III processor and the operating system is
Redhat 7.1

Why I am not able to create client with more than 250 threads ???

Is there any restriction on part of iperf or in linux threads ???


regards,
