Fork and Thread Defaults

If you want to debug processes with a large rumber (up to 300) LWPs (lightweight processes), you can set debugging to be conservative in its resource usage when doing so, but debugging performance may be slowed down.

To debug a large number of LWPs:

1. From the Debugging Window, choose Debug Debugging Options. Or, from the WorkShop main window, choose Options Debugging Options.

2. In the Debugging Options Dialog Box, click the Forks and Threads tab.

3. At To debug large number of LWPs, click to enable the Reduce resource usage checkbox.

4. Click OK to apply the change to the current session, or Save as Defaults to apply it to all sessions.
