FS#2853 - Client(trunk) hangs while loading on single core systems
The client hangs while loading on single core systems.
This seems to be a threading issue.
The loading thread seems to starve, since it’s low priority.

Information about the threading code
might be a bit clearer, as it took me a
few weeks to find out which setting to
set. Maybe renaming
ThreadManager.AlwaysRunNow would be a
good idea so it is clear that setting it
to true, does not mean running threading
always, but exactly the opposite :)
Assigning to Xordan, since he's working on it.
Should be fixed in CS.
The client still acts the same :(
hmm, no idea then. Vornne tested for me and reported that there's no longer a problem.. can't think of anything else to try. :(
Does "Threaded loading" option actually work?
non-threaded loading should be fine for such systems ;)
yes it works, but it's only for map loading and it's set to non threaded by default.
Adding this to psclient.cfg will disable threading entirely btw, so maybe try it.
ThreadManager.AlwaysRunNow = true
That works Xordan :)
I'll do one better and add an option into pslaunch.
The naming of that options makes good technical sense, maybe not if you don't know exactly what it does :)
