Re: [dsdp-ercp-dev] Running eSWT browser starves all other threads?

["Gorkem Ercan" <gercan@xxxxxxx>]

This is odd. We have a similar job fetching mechanism on an internal
application as well and that works fine. We have also tried to
replicate the situation from your description but it worked for us.
Can you provide more code to us to help reproduce. Also do you see the
same behavior on different URLs? Symbian threading is a bit unfair and
if the page loaded busy loops for instance it can starve the java
threads.
