272.0. "PPL work queue size" by HGOVC::CHRISTSANG () Mon Mar 03 1997 22:53

    Hello,
    
    One of our customers is writing programs using the Parallel Programming
    Library (PPL). He would like to inquire the maximum size of the work queue 
    ? He apparently could not find this in the manual.
    
    Please assist.
    
    
    Best regards
    Chris

   The PPL library is no longer supported, and is now available in source
   code -- the supported (and portable) replacement is  DECthreads.
