Question

Hi, i have a c# program which calls into a c++ library. The c# programs process has a high thread count 50 - 60. Most seem to be created in c++ and i supect most are suspended/waiting. How do i find how many of these threads are active at a given point in time?

thanks

Answer 1

You could use Process Explorer to inspect threads. It will tell you in realtime how much CPU each is consuming, and can give you individual stack traces, which will indicate what they are blocked on.
