Re: CreateThread Fails with ERROR_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY....

Well, It's a 4CPU box with 4Gigs RAM. What you are saying might be correct, but I am having no luck with !address -summary . That command is failing on my box. Let me see if there can be other ways to achieve the same.

Thx,
Gary.

Well, first of all having 180 threads seems to me a good candidate for throwing away at least a part of the conception. How many processors do you have on the box?

Why is reducing the stack size of some threads "innaceptable"? I bet each of theses threads doesn't do a lot of things, no?


The system WIN2K Server has almost 4G RAM available & huge disk
space. I dont think its running out of system memory.
Do you think the pagefile settings of the box needs to be re-looked ?
Apart from looking into the number of different kind of objects
consumed......Is there any way to see if any of those object types is
hitting a maximum limit ?

As explained, use Windbg or the like to see what your user address space looks like... I suspect that the threads stacks are placed in such a place in the virtual address space that fragmentation is the limiting factor, not total available space.
