A method, computer program product, and a data processing system for processing transactions of a client-server application is provided. A first data set is transmitted from a client to a server. A second data set to be transmitted to the server is received by the client. An evaluation is made to determine whether transmission of the second data set is blocked until receipt of an acknowledgment of the first data set. A number of allowable outstanding acknowledgements is increased responsive to determining that the second data set is blocked from transmission.

A system and method for identifying compatible threads in a Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) processor environment is provided by calculating a performance metric, such as CPI, that occurs when two threads are running on the SMT processor. The CPI that is achieved when both threads were executing on the SMT processor is determined. If the CPI that was achieved is better than the compatibility threshold, then information indicating the compatibility is recorded. When a thread is about to complete, the scheduler looks at the run queue from which the completing thread belongs to dispatch another thread. The scheduler identifies a thread that is (1) compatible with the thread that is still running on the SMT processor (i.e., the thread that is not about to complete), and (2) ready to execute. The CPI data is continually updated so that threads that are compatible with one another are continually identified.

A system and method for scheduling threads in a Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) processor environment utilizing multiple SMT processors is provided. Poor performing threads that are being run on each of the SMT processors are identified. After being identified, the poor performing threads are moved to a different SMT processor. Data is captured regarding the performance of threads. In one embodiment, this data includes each threads' CPI value. When a thread is moved, data regarding the thread and its performance at the time it was moved is recorded along with a timestamp. The data regarding previous moves is used to determine whether a thread's performance is improved following the move.

A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable code for managing cache data. A partition identifier is associated with a cache entry in a cache, wherein the partition identifier identifies a last partition accessing the cache entry. The partition identifier associated with the cache entry is compared with a previous partition identifier located in a processor register in response to the cache entry being moved into a lower level cache relative to the cache. The cache entry is marked if the partition identifier associated with the cache entry matches the previous partition identifier located in the processor register to form a marked cache entry, wherein the marked cache entry is aged at a slower rate relative to an unmarked cache entry.

A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for saving information from an email message. The information is selected from the email message to form selected information. The selected information and header information is saved in the email message. The header information is designated through a user preference.

A method, system, and program for facilitating presentation and monitoring of electronic mail messages with reply by constraints are provided. Within a network environment, a server receives electronic mail messages with separate selected reply by dates, wherein each electronic mail message is addressed for delivery by the server to at least one particular recipient. The server enables, for display within a user interface accessible to the particular recipient, a separate record for each electronic mail message within an inbox. The inbox include at least one selectable sublevel, wherein upon selection of the particular selectable sublevel of the inbox, only a selection of records for electronic mail messages with a same reply by date as the selectable sublevel are displayed within the user interface.

Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for scheduling threads in a multiprocessor computer. Embodiments include selecting a thread in a ready queue to be dispatched to a processor and determining whether an interrupt mask flag is set in a thread control block associated with the thread. If the interrupt mask flag is set in the thread control block associated with the thread, embodiments typically include selecting a processor, setting a current processor priority register of the selected processor to least favored, and dispatching the thread from the ready queue to the selected processor. In some embodiments, setting the current processor priority register of the selected processor to least favored is carried out by storing a value associated with the highest interrupt priority in the current processor priority register.

Input/output (I/O) requests generated by processes are typically stored in I/O queues. Because the queued I/O requests may not be associated with the processes that generated them, changing a process' priority may not affect the priority of the I/O requests generated by the process. Therefore, after the process' priority has been increased, it may be forced to wait for an I/O handler to service its I/O request, which may be stuck behind an I/O request generated by a lower priority process. Functionality can be implemented to associate the processes' priorities with the I/O requests generated by the processes. Also, reordering the queued I/O requests to reflect changes in the processes' priorities can ensure that the I/O requests from high priority processes are serviced before the I/O requests from low priority processes. This can ensure efficient processing and lower wait times for high priority processes.

Methods, systems, and media are disclosed for improved granularity of a response-request communication on a networked computer system. One example embodiment includes receiving the request-response communication by the networked computer system, and associating the request-response communication with a port, having a nodelay setting, from a set of ports on the networked computer system. Further, the example embodiment includes enabling, based upon the associating, the nodelay setting upon connection of the request-response communication with the port. Further still, the example embodiment includes sending, in accordance with the enabling, the request-response communication to a destination in communication with the networked computer system. In addition, further example embodiments include configuring the ports on the networked computer system with nodelay values indicating whether a particular port is assigned nodelay or no nodelay for a request portion or request portion of a request-response communication connecting to that particular port.
