Using the lightweight pooling Option

The overhead of switching thread contexts is not great. Most systems will not see any performance difference between setting the lightweight pooling option to 0 or 1. The only servers likely to benefit from lightweight pooling have:

• Large multi-CPU servers.
• All of the CPUs running near maximum capacity.
• A lot of context switching.

These systems may see a slight increase in performance by setting the lightweight pooling value to 1.
