Hi Chris,

About the benchmarking routine I was talking about.... I've found out what I was doing wrong.

I wasn't implementing the pthread_joins properly, and I was eating up CPU.

In fact, after more testing, your pthread_cond_wait is taking up about 
10milliseconds, compared to 200milliseconds. That's a lot better, but it 
is still vary large for a real-time application.

(I'm using beta4_1, running on linux kernel 1.2.13)

Thanks, 
Darren Chua.

PS: Really sorry for wasting your time earlier.
