AW: [omniORB] Need more objects on Linux

Arno has answered Nick's direct question, which was how to have more
threads. However, maybe he is not taking the best approach:

Trying to run 1000 processes concurrently is going to give him
problems anyway! Nick, have you considered trying a coarser
granularity of processes? My understanding is that each server process
can call obj_is_ready on a large number of objects, and then make
(say) a blocking call to impl_is_ready, without a separate thread
being created for each object UNLESS calls to those objects are
received concurrently. Would the developers/other wise ones care to
comment?
