<h1 class="topictitle1">Performance considerations in multithreaded applications</h1>
<div><p>There are several performance considerations for multithreaded
jobs on <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span>.</p>
<p>The concepts that are described here pertain to all programming
languages. For details about how each language enables a concept, refer to
the <a href="../rzahg/rzahglanguages.htm">Language</a> topic
in the information center for that specific language.</p>

<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahwserco.htm">Multithreaded server recommendations</a></strong><br />
When you write a typical server to take advantage of threads, a common design is to have a single listener thread waiting for client requests and multiple individual worker threads to perform the client's requested operations.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahwprico.htm">Job and thread priorities</a></strong><br />
An <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> thread
competes with threads throughout the system for scheduling resources in addition
to competing with other threads in the same job.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahwconco.htm">Contention among threads</a></strong><br />
Contention occurs when one thread has to wait for another thread to finish using a resource.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahwpooco.htm">Effects of storage pool sizes on threaded applications</a></strong><br />
The storage pool size specified for a subsystem affects the performance and number of threads you can create.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahwactco.htm">Activity levels of storage pools</a></strong><br />
The activity level of a storage pool refers to the number of active threads within that storage pool.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahwperco.htm">Performance and threaded applications</a></strong><br />
Job-level performance counters are updated by all the threads in a job.</li>
