Hi ppl,
I'm experiencing some weird stuff when using forkpty(). It seems tohog much more cpu than if I just start the same number of processes.Can anyone shed some light on this subject?

IIRC, becouse of some basepage magic needed to be done when switchingcontext of threads that belong to single process, fork is not a verygood idea in FreeMiNT. IIRC (again) MiNTLib fork() has a workaround forthat that actually creates new process in the same address space(instead of just forking).
