First, thanks for the taking the time to address these issues; I realize that OS/2 is not a priority.

Perhaps. But I didn't have this problem until a recent beta.

I note that you share a lot of files, but you have erased your THEX data cache. This is still a new feature in LimeWire, ant i will take time until all your files are indexed.
Oops. That is the filename of the THEX cache? Next time I will be more careful.

However, throttling of this hasher by concurrent threads seems to be ineffective on OS/2.
Well,I am now running LimeWire 3.9.10 in the background (~14 uploads at the moment) and total CPU usage is around 5%. It is only versions 3.9.11 and 3.9.12 where I encounter this problem.

I recommand you check your system settings related to virtual memory management (if you don't have a permanent and unfragmented swap space, you could experiment long delays o perform efficient multithreading).
I have 512 MB of memory, and the swap file (2MB) is unused, so fragmentation is not an issue.
